Father
Marquette Elementary School first-grade students learn about
pedestrian safety and common traffic signals from Marquette
General Hospital EMS Paramedic Gary Gustafson.
Pedestrian-related
crashes are the second leading cause of injury-related deaths
for children 5-14 years of age. Gustafson also explained safe
street crossing and intersection safety. Carrier & Gable, Inc. of
Farmington Hills customized the traffic signals so they could
be adapted for classroom use.
The Marquette Fire Department and
Marquette
Police Department assisted with the presentation.
