“Always use the Green Cross Code, because I won’t be there when you cross the road!”
Green Cross Man reduced the annual number of injuries sustained by children on UK roads by 50% - aka 20,000 cases - by the end of the campaign. Dave Prowse was doing up to three school visits a day at its height and even released a single for ROSPA with Don Estelle.
My fave write up is from the British Comics Wiki which describes him as ‘Green Cross Man alias Darth Vader; Weapons: Common Sense; Weaknesses: Dress Sense.’ xD
