There shall be at least two patrol members. One shall operate as described in section (c) above. The other patrol member shall operate in uniformity similarly on the opposite side of the roadway and give attention to traffic approaching on that side. He shall assist the group of students to reach that side of the roadway safely.

(f) Pedestrian Tunnels or Overpasses.

Patrol members shall be stationed on each side of the roadway so that the protection provided shall be used.

(g) Loading on Streetcars.

Patrol members shall hold the students off the roadway until the streetcar or other conveyance which is to be loaded in the roadway has arrived at the loading station and has stopped. The patrol members will then allow the students to cross the roadway to the public conveyance, provided their crossing is not in conflict with a traffic signal, or the direction of a police officer or crossing guard.
