Because walking is done out doors it is important to observe simple safety rules.

RULE NO ONE : DON´ T TEXT WHILE WALKING

This rule hit home when I heard on CNN that a Teenager fell into a man hole while texting.

“A teenager was walking along the streets in Staten Island recently suffered an embarrassing mistake when she walked into an open sewer while sending text messages on her cell phone. Alexa Longueira, 15, suffered deep cuts and bruises after she fell through a manhole that was uncovered and reportedly left unattended.” OOPS!

“It was just really gross and it was shocking and scary,” Longueira said about the incident.

This teenager learnt the hard way that walking and texting can be dangerous.
