If someone falls into the water and is in trouble, I should:
Get the attention of an adult who can help you. Look around for a long object, such as a stick or a paddle, to try to reach the person in the water.

When you are going out with friends, you should always….?
Always let someone know before you go! Not only should you let someone know before you go, you should try not to talk on your cell phone in the street because someone might see it and steal it, someone might hear all your details while you are talking, and you might not hear trouble approaching

If you think you are being followed, what should you do?
Never take short cuts if they include dark or quiet places or if your mum/dad/carer are expecting you to come home by the main route. Never confront someone who is following you. Get away from them.

When are most kids ready for a regular seatbelt?
Being ready for regular seat belts depends more on a child's height and how the seat belts fit, than on his age. In general, most kids aren't ready for regular seat belts until they are 4 feet 9 inches tall, usually when they are 8 to 12 years old.
500
If an adult you know makes you feel nervous or scared, what should you do?
If someone makes you feel uncomfortable, you shouldn’t discuss this with them but tell a parent or another adult that you trust. Don’t keep it to yourself. If you feel uneasy, then trust your instincts that something is not right and tell someone about it.
