Which one is correct

Playing on the road. Or playing in the road

Both phrases can be correct, but they have slightly different meanings.

"Playing on the road" typically refers to playing near or around the road, but not necessarily directly on it. For example, children playing on a sidewalk that runs parallel to the road.

"Playing in the road" means physically being on the road itself, potentially obstructing or putting oneself at risk. This is generally considered unsafe and should be avoided.

The correct phrase is "playing in the road."
