When an officer witnesses a child practicing good bike safety, they will be pulling over to visit with them and issuing them a bicycle safety ticket. On that “ticket” will be a coupon for a free ice cream cone from McDonald's.

Please assist the Watertown Police Department by teaching your children to wear a helmet while riding bike, to ride on the proper side of the road, to ride carefully on the sidewalk, and to cross roads at crosswalks or corners and not mid-block.
