Road and railway safety, sentence 16

Wait for the bus to stop before getting on, never run after a moving bus, and never cross right in front of a bus, because the driver cannot see small children close to the front; after getting off, wait until the bus has gone so you can see the road clearly before crossing.

Who acts: you, bus, driver · What happens: wait, stop, get on, not run, move, not cross · To what, where: front, small children, road
