Stop Look Wave is a simple, fun way to teach kids around the world how to stay safe on the roads. Find out more and download the training materials here.
If you're going to cross the street, stop.
Look both ways, and make eye contact with any drivers near you.
Wave at the drivers, and wait for a wave back. Then, cross.
Stop Look Wave increases awareness, encourages safe behavior and can help save lives. So far, the initiative has reached children in more than 30 countries worldwide. As part of Stop Look Wave we've made this song and music video to help spread the message. Can you get a classroom full of kids up on their feet and dancing to the song?

Important: It is not the responsibility of the children to make sure that accidents do not happen. The responsibility lies with the drivers, truck manufacturers, and infrastructure providers. Stop Look Wave is not about responsibility, it is about spreading knowledge. Knowledge to enable a safer interaction between different groups of road users.
