Data obtained in other countries and by the Transport and Road Research Laboratory have shown that roadside instruction has advantages and School Crossing Patrols were asked if they instructed children about how to cross roads safely if there were no Patrol to help them. Out of 117 Patrols, 62 (53%) did so, mostly by talking to the children rather than by showing them, demonstrating or by example. An analysis of the types of instruction given and ways in which use was made of the opportunities to deal with small groups of children informally, suggests that such a teaching situation has many educational advantages. It is suggested that the provision of literature or appropriate training for Crossing Patrols might be worth while so as to ensure that Crossing Patrols are kept up-to-date on teaching schemes for pedestrian skills.
