Kaufbeuren / District -.
At the beginning of school, the safety of children on the way to school is again the focus of the police.
That is why there are more and more controls in the area of school routes.
But the instruction of school pilots, school bus pilots and school helpers is also the task of the local youth traffic educators of the police.
The law enforcement officers are still looking for reinforcements among the school helpers.
The youth traffic educators in the area of the police headquarters in Swabia South / West were able to recruit and train a total of 623 new volunteer helpers for school commute services in 2020.
While the number of school guides, school bus guides and school bus guides used declined slightly, the number of school helpers used increased by a total of 380 volunteers.
Important and indispensable
School helpers and school bus attendants are people who, with their voluntary work, help to improve safety on the way to school.
They help the ABC riflemen on the way to school or back home, for example when crossing busy streets.
They are therefore an important and indispensable part of daily road safety work on the way to and from school.
With a manageable amount of time, parents and grandparents, as well as other interested people, can make a significant contribution to the safety of children and help avoid accidents on the way to school.
Interested parties can contact their local police station at any time, including during the current school year.
