EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, titled "Look Right and Left: Children, Stop, Look Right and Then Left Before Crossing the Road," offers a captivating glimpse into the past of road safety education. Taken in 1934, the image depicts a group of children standing on the side of a high way, intently focusing on the traffic approaching from both directions. The children, dressed in clothes typical of the era, are following the instructions of an adult, who is out of the frame but can be inferred by the pointing hand in the image. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its representation of a critical moment in the evolution of transport safety. The "Look Right and Left" code, which emphasized the importance of checking for oncoming traffic from both sides before crossing the road, was a crucial part of road safety education in the early 20th century. This approach contrasted with the earlier "Look Left and Then Right" instruction, which focused only on checking for traffic coming from the opposite direction. The photograph also highlights the stark contrast between the present-day road safety infrastructure and the conditions of the 1930s. The absence of traffic signals, pedestrian crossings, and other safety features underscores the importance of individual vigilance and responsibility in ensuring safety on the roads. Moreover, the image serves as a poignant reminder of the transformative impact of technological advancements on our daily lives. The advent of motor vehicles brought about a new set of challenges and risks, necessitating the development of safety codes and practices that continue to evolve to this day. In summary, this photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the importance of road safety education and the evolution of transport safety practices over the decades.
