Ang Mo Kio residents got a refresher lesson on road safety yesterday - a bid by the police to promote safe habits for pedestrians when crossing the road, reported The Straits Times.
More than 1,000 residents, including the elderly and very young, took part in the road-safety event in their neighbourhood. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, an MP for Ang Mo Kio GRC, joined residents at the event.
The children learnt basic traffic rules at a mini road-safety circuit as they rode around a court in mini tricycles, while the elderly listened to a talk on road safety.
Children and the elderly are among the most vulnerable road users. Last year saw 211 reported cases of injuries involving pedestrians aged 60 and above, up from 194 in 2014, according to police figures.
