School bus drivers and parents are also urged to adhere to the specific speeds and follow the rules when transporting their children. He also called on drivers to be careful while passing through the streets near schools, and when entering and exiting the school premises.
Zafin stated that 40 traffic police officers, 20 sergeants and 20 traffic patrols have been specially assigned to facilitate traffic around schools.
Parents are further urged to not let their children cross roads alone, and all children under age 12 must be seated in the rear, with seat belts on. Children must also be dropped off only at appointed drop-off or parking spots, and not on the opposite side of the road from their schools or homes, to avoid possible run-over accidents.
The school bus minders should ensure that children follow the rules while getting on and off the bus, standing in groups about 10 steps away from the bus stop and approach the vehicle in an organised manner while boarding.
Dubai's traffic programme is always in readiness before the start of the new school year, with special programmes to educate school bus drivers in measures to be followed while transporting students. Private security officers at schools are also trained in traffic policing, to organise vehicle movement at the school gates and ensure student safety. Student scouts are trained too, to help out during peak hours.
