School Crossing Patrol's
School Crossing Patrols operate throughout Greater Manchester and help more than ½ a million pedestrians to cross the road safety, on their journey to and from school each day.
Motorists you must stop when signalled to do so by a School Crossing Patrol. It is an offence under the Road Traffic Act not to obey the sign of a School Crossing Patrol.
IF YOU DO NOT STOP the possible penalties include:
- A fine of up to £1,000
- 3 penalty points on your driving licence.
- Disqualification.
Do not move off until the patrol has returned to the pavement.
DRIVERS/RIDERS if you approach a Pelican/Puffin/Toucan crossing where a School Crossing Patrol operates, whatever the light, you MUST OBEY the Patrols sign.
