Teach kids about bike safety, please

From Cape Story Neighborhood Watch:

“Dear Neighborhood Watch,
I understand that our children really need a place to play and
ride their bikes.  However I am very worried that we may have a repeat
bike accident as we had on Beech about a year ago.  I need for everyone to know
that there are some very young children about ages 4-7 riding their bikes in an unsafe way
without supervision on Beech St.  On Saturday one of these children about age 4 or 5 years old steered their
bike in front of my moving car. I had to slam on the brakes. Then he stayed
there daring me to move forward. I am really very worried that someone else
may not see them or stop.  So parents would you please watch your very
young children when they are out on the street and give them instruction on bike riding safety?
I am sure we can work together to make this a safer neighborhood for everyone.
Thanks, A concerned resident.”
