Ice Cream,Ice Cream,Don’t Make a Child Scream,SLOW DOWN.


Ice Cream,Ice Cream,Don’t Make a Child Scream,SLOW DOWN.

JUST HOW LARGE DO WE HAVE TO MAKE THE SIGN FOR MOTORISTS TO SEE
Just how large do you want the signs to be to warn you about children.Surely it should be self explanatory where an ice cream van is trading there is a good chance children will be around and crossing.With the joy of ice cream some children may not always remember their green cross code,and while good professional ice cream operators try to park in streets near the kerb and as safe a place as possible children are children.Time and again motorists speed past to fast without thought or care.Through the industry network we heard yesterday of such an incident in another county where the worst happened,luckily the little chap walked away with shock and bruising however the after effects on many remain.The driver of the car was left shocked and distraught as well as the child plus his bruises.The ice cream vendor who over time builds up very personal relationships with the children on his rounds was left emotionally shocked even if no blame has been directed to him.The vendor ended up not being able to carry on with his daily round and lost his days trading due to stress.
So the next time you see an ice cream van out and you pass KILL THE SPEED not a Child.
SLOW DOWN.
REMEMBER  ICE CREAM, ICE CREAM, DON’T MAKE A CHILD SCREAM.
