Safety Division’s Campaign to Educate Parents in Syracuse
The chamber safety division urges parents to share responsibility for child pedestrian safety after police data show 62 of 83 injured children this year were unsupervised. Walter L. Fox, chairman, says cooperation with police is vital, but parental action is essential to reduce accidents. A cited incident shows a kindergartner struck when a mother failed to use a designated crossing. The plan expands outreach to raise awareness of highway dangers in busy streets.
