Risako Kawai and Yukako, who won gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics and wrestling girls at the Shinjuku Police Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, will be appointed as chiefs for one day in line with the autumn national traffic safety campaign, making it safe for children to cross the pedestrian crossing. I told them how to cross.
Risako Kawai and Yukako, who won the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics and wrestling girls, became the one-day chief of the Shinjuku Police Department of the Metropolitan Police Department on the 26th.
Then, in the auditorium of the Shinjuku Police Station, check with the children engaged in traffic safety activities whether a car is coming or stopped when crossing the road, and check if a car is coming while crossing. I used a simulated pedestrian crossing to teach that it was important to do.
After that, we talked with the children and declared, "Tokyo, the world's number one traffic safety city, is from Shinjuku."
According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, the number of cases in which a child was involved in an accident while crossing a road in Tokyo was 150 by the end of June, 1.7 times more than the same period of the previous year.
Risako Kawai said, "Similar to sports, there are rules for traffic. As a player who participated in the Olympics, I would like to show myself observing the rules for traffic."
