Why should you not play on the footpath?
Footpaths are meant for pedestrians to walk safely and stay away from moving vehicles.
Playing on the footpath can obstruct the path for pedestrians, cause inconvenience to others, and may lead to accidents if children accidentally step onto the road.
Explanation
The chapter states in Rule 3 that 'Footpaths are meant for pedestrians' and children should 'always walk on them and stay away from moving vehicles.' Playing on footpaths defeats the purpose of keeping pedestrians safe and can be dangerous.
