That PDF is great. Just glanced it and now must attend to more boring matters, such as my checking account. I love Mommy Mythbusters! Okay, I’m so glad that the NHTSA actually covered this point!

I appreciate it. That is a really good point about traffic accidents near schools. That is one of the things that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration "Safe Routes To School" program talks about.(http://bit.ly/pmgLq) Instead of parents realizing that walking to school is a very safe thing to do and just letting it happen, they are driving their kids to school, thus creating tons of traffic around schools, and actually MAKING it unsafe -- creating the problem themselves! The Safe Routes To School program helps teach schools, parents and kids ways to be safe when walking or biking to school. It also encourages parents to stop driving their kids to school to stimulate a healthier lifestyle (encouraging exercise and avoiding pedestrian/auto accidents). http://bit.ly/pmgLq Thanks for the props in your post!
