UK Crossing Guard Signs to Get Cameras

April 30th, 2008 | Category: Gadget News

who help kids cross streets near schools. Local councils hope the cameras will deter growing abuse heaped on “lollipop ladies” by drivers who would prefer to plow through groups of school children rather than having to wait.
