The Driver takes the challenge,the Passengers enforce the rules
Mindful Driving Challenge for June -
Thank a Lifesaver
Your mindful driving challenge for June is to thank a crossing guard for their help all year.
During drop off and pick up times,regular streets suddenly become a Mad Max landscape of
cars,bikes, and pedestrians all in a rush around the school. It's all for only 20-30 minutes, so it
doesn't make sense to install stop signs or traffic lights that will govern what is normally light
traffic for the other 23 hours of the day.But something has to keep the chaos under control!
Which is where our local heroes,the Crossing Guards, come in. They make sure the kids cross
the street at the crosswalk,batch the kids in big groups instead of a trickle so traffic can keep
moving, make sure kids walk their bikes in the crosswalks instead of weaving in and out of the
pedestrians ... in short,they keep us all safe.Your challenge for June,before leaving for summer
vacation,is to slow down, roll down your window, and thank your crossing guards.
These Challenges are brought to you by the Cupertino Safe Routes to School Program. Check
