Reflective vest will avoid many accidents at the wheel

The work begins to bear fruit, and more will give. The Villanova Local Police officer José Luis has been teaching classes in schools and institutes in the municipality for six years and has managed to ensure that children act as advocates of road safety for their parents. They have learned the lesson and do not hesitate to require adults to put on their belts, not to talk on the phone at the wheel and to do the exercise of counting 1,001, 1,002 and 1,003 before starting a STOP. And if you play the role of pedestrians already know that it is mandatory to put on the reflective vest, which better to wear light clothing if it is night and always walk on the left.

 

“Someone who does not wear a belt begins to say pi-pi-pi, so tell him that he or she will. These small machines are going to be xenia aeration, “says the agent.

But his work has not yet ended, far from it. Maui, as the boys call him, has proposed to implant in Villanova the “Generation 00: zero accidents, zero victims”. This is the title that has given to a project that will develop throughout this course. In addition to continuing with the informative lectures and practical classes with the mobile park that gives in these cases the Provincial Traffic Headquarters, his idea includes calling a drawing competition on road safety and instituting a book of signatures in which public entities and Private companies to write their commitment in this matter, among other initiatives.

 

Six years learning

The objective abounds the official, is to continue deepening training and awareness that prevention can save many lives; and those children who were released in Children and who pass to the institute already have a long way traveled thanks to the classes with Maui.

 

The police take safety vest returned last week to the school of San Roué de Croon and before it was in San Miguel and Julio Cambia. In the next few weeks he will go to Termed and Bain, and he plans to take these didactic sessions to the center of attention to people with autism and does not rule out doing it with adults as well, because it never hurts to remind them that Safety are to be met.

 

José Luis knows how to deal with the boys very well and gets them to listen and get the message: “I lost friends in accidents and tell them that there must be zero accidents.”
