Allow Crossing Guards to Wear Body-Worn Cameras to Protect Children and Staff

Allow Crossing Guards to Wear Body-Worn Cameras to Protect Children and Staff — 13 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

I want the Government to allow school crossing guards to wear body-worn cameras to protect children and those who stand in the road every day to keep them safe. Cameras could deter reckless drivers, capture evidence and help hold dangerous motorists accountable.

Additional details

Every school day, crossing guards step into traffic and put themselves between dangerous vehicles and our children. They deserve protection too. Drivers who ignore their instructions can put innocent lives at risk, yet guards may have no way to prove exactly what happened. Body-worn cameras could deter dangerous driving, protect crossing guards and provide vital evidence. Please sign this petition and help us give those who protect our children the protection they deserve.
