00:00Hey Ginny, you look like a traffic police woman.
00:05Yes, it's a road safety week in the school and we have to discuss all things about road safety and traffic rules.
00:15Oh, very good. Can you tell me something about road safety and traffic rules?
00:21Oh yes, let me call my friend.
00:25Wow, is that a traffic light?
00:28Yes, that is. He is our friend. We should all follow his signals to be safe on the road.
00:35I can tell you all the traffic lights.
00:38Good, go ahead. Our friend here will give us different signals and you can tell me what each one represents.
00:46Ok, now the signal is red. It means stop.
00:51You are right. When the signal turns red, we all should stop.
00:55Oh, now it's green. It means we can go.
00:59Yes, Jimmy. You are correct. When the traffic light turns green, we can start walking or we can start driving our cars.
01:10Hey, now it's showing yellow.
01:13I don't know what to do.
01:16Yellow light means wait. It tells you that either you will have to wait for the red light or for the green light.
01:23Can you tell me more?
01:25Yes, let's go to the kids road safety park and there we can learn some more things.
01:35Here comes a car. I will sit on the front seat.
01:44Jimmy, children should always sit on the back seat of a car.
01:49So, please close the front door and let's sit behind.
01:54Ok, let me come and join you on the back seat.
01:58Jimmy, one more rule. You should always come in or out of the car from the curb side of the road.
02:07Ok, ok. Let me come from this side.
02:14Tell me, where should we wear seat belts?
02:17We should always wear seat belt as sometimes drivers apply brakes suddenly.
02:24If you are not wearing a seat belt, then you may hit your head on something and that can be dangerous.
02:35Uncle, please can you switch your phone off?
02:40Thank you uncle.
02:42Why did you ask uncle to not answer his phone?
02:46Because, we should not talk on our mobile phones while driving. It can be very dangerous.
02:53While talking on our phones, we don't pay full attention to the road. It can cause an accident.
03:00Oh, I will tell this to my school bus driver. He will be very angry.
03:05Oh, I will tell this to my school bus driver. He is always talking on his cell phone while driving.
03:13Look, the signal is now red. Our car is slowly stopping.
03:19Hey look, it's my friend in that car. Let me say hello to him.
03:24Jimmy, that is dangerous. You should not take your hand or head out of the car on the road.
03:30If another car or a vehicle is coming from behind, it can hit you.
03:35Oh, I am so sorry. I never thought like that.
03:41We have to go to the market area. Let's go outside.
03:45Remember the rule, we should always get in or out of the car from the curb side of the road.
03:54Oh see, our friend is here too.
04:01Yes, traffic lights are our friends. They help in controlling the traffic.
04:08Hey stop, did you see the signal? It is still green for the traffic.
04:14We should cross the road only when the signal for the vehicle is red.
04:20Oh sorry, and I also know one rule. We should always cross the road from pedestrian crossing.
04:27Yes, it's also called zebra crossing.
04:31See now the light has gone red for the traffic. Now we can cross the road.
04:43Oh, that was very close.
04:49Don't cry, nothing has happened. You are safe.
04:53But remember, don't run or play while you are on the pavement. It can be very dangerous.
05:01I will take care next time. Pavement is for walking. It's not for playing.
05:08You are very intelligent.
05:10Oh, let's go to the other side.
05:13But we can't cross the road as the signal for pedestrians is red. Let's wait.
05:20It's green now. But before crossing we should look both ways to make sure that all vehicles have stopped.
05:30Now we can cross.
05:38Wow, it's a park.
05:41Yes, here we can learn about traffic signals. Let's go to each one.
05:46It is written stop. What does it mean?
05:50It means we should stop and look for other vehicles.
05:54If there is no other traffic, then we can move. Let's go to the next.
06:04I know about it. It is near to my school.
06:08It means that you are near our school and you should slow down.
06:13You are right.
06:14Look at this sign. It means you can't take a left turn.
06:20What is this sign?
06:22Oh, this? This tells you that we can't take a U-turn from here.
06:27Look at this sign. It seems some person is walking.
06:32You are right. This sign tells you that there is some work going on.
06:37So either we should be slow or we should take another route.
06:40Thank you Ginny. I learned a lot today.
