A board game from the 1930's that teaches Australian children road safety as they travel from home to school and return home again. Up to 4 players follow a numbered path of red or yellow squares along a road that crosses train, tram and other intersections. Movement is by throw of a dice and landing on a red square will incur a penalty. First to return home is the winner

Produced most likely as a supplement in "The Sun News Pictorial" which was a popular morning tabloid newspaper distributed in Melbourne and Victoria, Australia.

The game states the following " This game is made available by the Sun News Pictorial in co-operation with the National Safety Council for the promotion of a better understanding of traffic rules and regulations among children".

A second and probably original version was produced by the National Safety Council of Australia and differs slightly in the text in the left column and in the advertising signage near the train and playground
