Introduction
Safety means protection from danger or injury. Great importance needs to be placed on safety of students and their instructors in workshops in order to prevent accidents.
Accidents are unpleasant events. They happen unexpectedly and cause injury or damage. We must plan against them by taking safety measures. This encourages interest in the learning of technology and prevents frequent damage of laboratory equipment.
Safety rule and guidelines for pedestrians
The following safety rules and guidelines should be observed by pedestrians:
- Always walk on the left side of the road facing oncoming traffic.
- Where sidewalks are provided, use them rather than walking on the tarred road.
- Wear reflective or bright coloured clothes at night and carry a torch.
- When crossing the road, look left, right and left again before crossing.
- Walk quickly when crossing.
- Pedestrians should attempt to cross the road only at a safe place such as the:
- Zebra crossing
- Pedestrians overhead bridge
- Traffic light junctions, and
- Opposite islands
- You should never step on the crossing until you are sure the driver has seen you and has slowed down to stop.
- Make eye contact drivers before crossing in front of them.
- Never cross roads where there are guard rails, near the brow of a hill, at corners and bends, or near a parked vehicle.
- When crossing, where traffic lights have been put in place, watch to see when the red light goes on, to stop traffic moving along the road you want to cross.
