A lollipop man has been told by a council he can no longer high five children in case they are distracted while crossing the road.
Neil Cotton, 57, had been working as a school crossing patrol officer in Howden, East Yorkshire, for two years, when he shared on social media that he had been “instructed that I can NO LONGER high five the children anymore whilst crossing the road” and “NO LONGER guide the larger vehicles across Cross Keys Corner to eliminate the chances of legal action if there were to be an accident.”
