Walk Safe™ Keeping Pedestrians Safe in the “Danger Zone”

Walk Safe!™ is a 24-minute English language instructional video designed to teach pedestrian safety concepts. It was developed for use in ESOL classes and other instructional venues where English is taught at basic, intermediate and advanced levels. It may also be used in classes for young adults who are not necessarily ESOL students. And since everyone is a pedestrian at least some of the time, the concepts in this video are useful for anyone who crosses the road anywhere, anytime.
