School Parking...Think....!
The death of a child is horrific, whatever the circumstances, but the unnecessary death of a child, even more so.
The yellow zig zags are there to protect the children from possible traffic dangers outside the front of school, and to create an area of high visibility for other road users as the children leave the school site. Parents are requested and reminded to park away from the yellow markings, the white prohibited line and the junction for their own child's safety.
We do not want your child to be hurt...So please think about where you park or even better Walk and get fit.

10 year Driving Licences
Thousands of motorists are at risk of being fined up to £1,000 because they are unwittingly driving without a valid licence.
They risk prosecution after failing to spot the extremely small print on their photo card licence which says it automatically expires after 10 years and has to be renewed - even though drivers are licensed to drive until the age of 70. This has come to light a decade after the first batch of photo licences was issued in July 1998, just as they start to expire.
Motoring organisations blamed the Government for the fiasco and said 'most' drivers believed their licences were for life. They said officials had failed to publicise sufficiently the fact that new-style licences - unlike the old paper ones - expire after a set period and have to be renewed.

At the heart of the confusion is the small print on the tiny credit-card-size photo licence, which is used in conjunction with the paper version. The small print on the back of the driving licence is easy to miss. Just below the driver name on the front of the photo card licence is a series of dates and details - each one numbered. Number 4b features a date in tiny writing, but no explicit explanation as to what it means. The date's significance is only explained if the driver turns over the card and reads the key on the back which states that '4b' means 'licence valid to'. Even more confusingly, an adjacent table on the rear of the card sets out how long the driver is registered to hold a licence - that is until his or her 70th birthday. A total of 25million new-style licences have been issued but - motoring experts say - drivers were never sufficiently warned they would expire after 10 years.
The DVLA said failure to update the photo card after 10 years fell into the same category as failing to inform them of a change of address.
CHECK YOUR LICENCE EXPIRY DATE!!!
