LO is only 2.5 and I only have to manage him, but luckily he is pretty scared of cars/the street actually. So he gets nervous when he gets too close. And he knows that if he ever broke the rule and stepped onto the street without me, he would immediately be off the scooter and into the stroller.

Even before my son was riding a bike, I've always stressed how important it is to follow our directions on the street and what might happen if he were to run into the street on his own. I am very dramatic about it and he understands. So far so good. The only thing I really worried about when he first started riding was whether he can control when to slow down and stop. So in the beginning, I would have him practice stopping in the middle of a block and slowly increase the distance. As long as I can get him to follow the rules, his sister will follow as well. He's in charge of keeping her in check on the street now and has been really good at it.
