Yesterday I spotted from a distance, a young teenager jumping over the fence on the middle island, on Luxford Road, Mount Druitt.
As he joined myself and started to walk beside, I mentioned nicely that what he done was illegal and could cause an accident to his own health, as what he was doing was posing as a risk, primarily to himself. He politely apologised to myself and I said, 'Really, you need to realise the affect it could happen to you if there was a serious accident. I advised he was lucky I didn't take a picture of it'!
Great response from him!
There was another youth riding a bicycle and I also advised of wearing a helmet and the potential injury if he doesn't wear one. He wasn't rude, he agreed and said yes.
On both occasions I spoke nicely and both responses were nice as well. I just hope they live and learn and place into practice! It shows kids are great in our area!
