FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS DRIVE DRUNK

The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Advertising Council's Innocent Victims public service campaign emphasizes the need to intervene and get the keys away from someone about to drive drunk. Here are some helpful tips and advice from focus group research on how people can get the keys away from a drunk driver.

SCHOOL IS BACK MOTORIST USE CAUTION AND SLOW DOWN

For twenty three million students nationwide, the school day begins and ends with a trip on a school bus. The greatest risk is not riding the bus, but approaching or leaving the bus. Before children go back to school or start school for the first time, it is essential that adults and children know traffic safety rules.

Drivers

• When backing out of a driveway or leaving a garage, watch out for children walking or bicycling to school.
  
  
• When driving in neighborhoods with school zones, watch out for young people who may be thinking about getting to school, but may not be thinking of getting there safely.
  
  
• Slow down. Watch for children walking in the street, especially if there are no sidewalks in neighborhood.
  
  
• Slow down. Watch for children playing and congregating near bus stops.
  
  
• Be alert. Children arriving late for the bus may dart into the street with out looking for traffic.
  
  
• Learn and obey the school bus laws in your state. Learn the "flashing signal light system" that school bus drivers use to alert motorists of pending actions:
  
  
  • Yellow flashing lights indicate that the bus is preparing to stop to load or unload children. Motorists should slow down and prepare to stop their vehicles.
    
    
  • Red flashing lights and extended stop arms indicate that the bus has stopped, and that children are getting on or off. Motorists must stop their cars and wait until the red lights stop flashing, the extended stop sign is withdrawn, and the bus begins moving before they can start driving again.
    
    

Children

• Get to the bus stop at least five minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive.
  
  
• When the bus approaches, stand at least three giant steps (6 feet) away from the curb, and line up away from the street.
  
  
• Wait until the bus stops, the door opens, and the driver says that it's okay before stepping onto the bus.
  
  
• If you have to cross the street in front of the bus, walk on the sidewalk or along the side of the road to a point at least five giant steps (10 feet) ahead of the bus before you cross. Be sure that the bus driver can see you, and you can see the bus driver.
  
  
• Use the handrails to avoids falls. When exiting the bus, be careful that clothing with drawstrings, and book bags with straps don't get caught in the handrails or doors.
  
  
• Never walk behind the bus.
  
  
• Walk at least three giant steps away from the side of the bus.
  
  
• If you drop something near the bus, tell the bus driver. Never try to pick it up because the driver may not be able to see you.

Parents

• Teach children to follow these common sense practices to make school bus transportation safer.

  COMMEND AN OFFICER 

How to Commend a Mullica Twp Police Officer

Mullica Twp Police Officers make every effort to perform their duties in a competent, courteous and professional manner. Frequently, many officers exceed the expectations of the public by providing exceptional service that surpasses the norm. If you observe an officer performing their duties in a manner that you think is exceptional and reflects favorably upon the officer and the Department, we encourage you to take a moment and tell us about it.

Officers take great pride in being recognized by members of the public when they have performed their duties in an exceptional manner. Perhaps more importantly, officers who receive such accolades and encouragement from the citizenry recognize how their efforts are appreciated. Such an encouraging atmosphere improves officer morale and encourages all officers to work harder to improve their individual performance and the quality of the services they provide to the public.

If you would like to tell us about an exceptional service that you were the recipient of or observed being done for someone else, you may write to the Police Chief at the address provided or, if you prefer, you may use the handy online form we've provided for that purpose. No matter which you choose, please accept our thanks for sharing your experience with us. We appreciate being appreciated!
