Little kids have endless energy, stamina and imagination, and they’re always looking for a fun place to run and play. Here are a few tips to keep little ones safe in driveways and parking lots.

Top Safety Tips to Avoid Frontovers and Backovers

1. Take a few seconds to walk all the way around your parked car to check for children before getting in the car to drive away.
2. When checking for kids around your vehicle, see if anything that could attract a child, such as a pet, bike or toy, is under or behind your vehicle before getting in and starting the engine.
3. Identify and use safe play areas for children, away from parked or moving vehicles. 
4. Accompany little kids when they get in and out of a vehicle. Hold their hand while walking near moving vehicles in driveways, parking lots or on sidewalks.
5. If children are going to be playing in the driveway, block it off with trashcans or cones to prevent cars from coming in.
