To Remind Drivers of State Law: Yield to Pedestrians in a Crosswalk. Come cross the street safely with a Klements Racing Sausage. Mayor Barrett and the Klements Racing Brat will kick off the week on Monday on Wisconsin Ave. at the Riverwalk crosswalk. We will have a sausage a day and some favorite Milwaukee sports team mascots working at other crosswalks around the city each day.

Take the StreetShare pledge:<br />1. Stop to let people cross the street - This means motorists must yield - stopping if necessary- when they see a person waiting in a crosswalk (marked or unmarked).<br />2. Drive within the speed limit, maybe slower, never faster.<br />3. Watch for and take care when passing people on bicycles.<br />4. Obey all laws and treat all other road users with courtesy and respect<br /><br />To take the StreetShare pledge of for more information visit www.streetshare.org or call 414.286.3144<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/389061934008950786-4588791035718752535?l=streetshare.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dave Schlabowskehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624702664813653773noreply@blogger.com0
