This summer, Hubbards is encouraging New Zealand drivers to keep an eye out for our adventurous kids playing outdoors by placing signs around the country with the message: Beware Of The Kids! “Hooning around on bikes, climbing trees, cruising down the footpath on your scooter, swinging on a tyre, dive bombing off the wharf – that’s a Kiwi kid’s summer.”
As a holiday reminder for parents, Hubbards recommends this important driveway safety checklist**:
– When you leave home, shut the door securely so kids can’t run outside after you.
– Before driving off, make sure you know where the children are – parents often say they saw their child in a safe place before a driveway accident so check, check and check again.
– If you’re on your own and need to move your car, it’s safer to have the children ride in the car with you – even if it’s just moving it along the driveway.
– Most accidents happen when cars are reversing so check your blind spots.
– Hold children firmly by the hand whenever a vehicle is being moved and always supervise them around vehicles.
– If your driveway borders a play area, fence it.
– Remember to keep kids out of carparks and off driveways this summer.
