Parents also need to speak with their children about the danger of cars and playing in the street. Is there a park close by where these children can play safely?

For example there are stop signs practically everywhere, but many people ignore these signs and do not stop. In my neighborhood there are many kids who plays basketball on the street and they stop when cars pass by and resume their game when the cars drive by. I also notice that these kids are not under adult supervision, so I feel that putting up those signs for drivers is a good idea and on top of that a notice or flier of some sort should be distributed to each household to be aware of their childrens' safety while playing on the street or sidewalk.
