NJ Transit’s Safety Education Program Goes Virtual For Back To School

NJ TRANSIT is keeping up with the times by taking its Safety Education Program virtual. Schools are encouraged to request the free SAFETY RULES! presentation, now conducted over Zoom, to educate students on the need for safe behavior and caution around trains and light rail vehicles. This summer, the Safety Education Program sponsored two sessions of its virtual program for Wayne Safety Town, educating more than 70 students. In its more than 30-year history, the Safety Education Program has offered nearly five thousand presentations, educating hundreds of thousands of people across New Jersey.  More information is available at njtransit.com/safety.  The presentation includes a discussion on the dangers of the railroad tracks, age-appropriate films, including NJ TRANSIT’s award-winning film “Chicken on the Tracks” and a question-and-answer session. The presentation is available for free to public, non-profit and charter schools and community groups.
