Crossing the street can be dangerous .

For this reason you should cross the street where there is a pedestrian crossing, pedestrian paths, or where there is a traffic light for pedestrians. But yes, cross only when you are in GREEN.

Before crossing a good look at both sides. Three times: left, right and left again.
