The role of the school brigadier is very important.
The brigadier ensures the safety of schoolchildren at intersections while maintaining the correct pedestrian rules taught by the parents.
Did you know that according to section 311 of the Code de la sécurité routière that when traffic is directed by a peace officer, a school brigadier or a traffic signaller responsible for directing traffic during work, all persons must, despite a contrary signalling, must obey orders and signals.
