***Children under 13 years of age should always ride in the back seat.
***Children under 4'9" should sit in a booster seat. The chest strap of the seat belt must be below the neck area. The waist belt must be below the stomach (it must be on the waist).
***In the car, children should be calm so that the driver is not distracted. He reminded students to help remind parents that they should not be on their device while driving.
***We learned that a stranger does not necessarily look good or bad. We also learned that it is not okay for an adult (who is a stranger) to ask a child for help. Kids should never be alone with someone they do not know - that would be a dangerous situation.
***Kids can also be in a dangerous situation with an adult they DO know. Kids should never keep secrets from their parents or trusted adults.
***Sometimes children can get abducted. The best way for kids to stay safe is to play in groups, walk or ride bikes on streets they know, and never go with an adult they do not know. If kids are in a situation where they feel unsafe or in danger, they should scream, kick, etc.
***We learned that an Amber Alert was named after a girl named Amber who was abducted.
