We have noticed that some students crossing the street when the pedestrian signals are displaying the red hand. The intersection at the Ridge View bus lot and the entrance to Food Lion can be a very dangerous area if students do not follow the rules for walking across the street. Because we would like to avoid any accidents between students and cars, we wanted to remind everyone of these rules.
- Students should only cross the street when the pedestrian signals display the walk signal (see the image on the left). At this time cars should be stopped allowing students to safely cross the street.
- If the pedestrian signal displays a red hand (see the image on the right), students should not cross the street. They can push the button below the pedestrian signal that will cause the traffic light to change and allow them to cross the street.
