In some areas there are signs, signals and roadway markings to help you to cross the road safely.
When you cross the street at a corner with a signal light, you should wait for the green light to show in the direction you are walking.
At busy intersections there may be lines on the road called a crosswalk for you to walk between. There may also be special signals to tell you it is okay to cross the street. There is a green light with a picture of a person walking.
Always look both ways before you cross the street, by looking left, right and left again to make sure no cars are coming or turning into the crosswalk.
Yellow lights and signs mean caution or that you are coming to a dangerous area. If you are waiting to cross the street, you should not cross if the light is yellow. The light is about to turn red, and cars will enter the intersection.

When the signal light turns red, stop. If the light is red in the direction you are walking, do not cross the street.
When you see a red light with picture of a man, stop. Wait to cross the street until you see a green signal. Then look carefully to left, right and left again. If there is no traffic coming, cross the street.
If you must cross the street, you should cross at an intersection if there is one. Stop at the side of the road, and look carefully to the left, right and left again. If there is no traffic coming, walk across the road. Don't run, you are more likely to fall.
