“I’m taking a break from crime-fighting in Gotham City

No rest from danger, though, because all around us is that deadly, daily danger: TRAFFIC” 

“I admire the way all you British children triumph over this danger by learning and using the road safety code.” Like Kerb Drill ……….

…Remember, Be Smart, be safe, Always Know your KERB Drill

Batman

The objective of the video is to teach kids how to look both ways before crossing the street, otherwise known as the “Kerb Drill.”
