Every third parent with school-age children think that traffic safety on the way to school is a problem, according to NAF road barometer of 2015.
– Because many parents perceive the way to school as unsafe, they choose to drive their children, but there is no good solution, says Inger Elisabeth Sagedal, communications director of the organization.
She believes it is a paradox that parents choose this solution.
– this makes conditions along the road even more dangerous. We adults need to remember that children have sharp vision, but they can not physically assess speed or distance running, she said.
Sagedal asking adults about allying with other parents in the neighborhood. Then you can cycle or walk along with them, or at least run several together in each car.
– If you have to drive, park a few hundred meters away from the busiest area, and go along with child the rest of the way, says Sagedal.
The insurance company If has developed a GPS where people can report the hazardous traffic school routes. Since the start of school last year, it made more than 9,000 markers in the map app Slowdown GPS at schools and on school routes across the country.
