Police action to prevent accidents involving pedestrians

Over the coming week, road police officers in reflective vest across the country will step up their actions to prevent road accidents involving pedestrians! The traffic police will act on a national level between 6 and 12 November, under the coordination of the Romanian Police Road Directorate, to save lives and to prevent road events involving pedestrians.

 

Activities are aimed primarily at combating pedestrian traffic violations. Particular attention will be paid to roadside potential areas as well as to road traffic occurrences caused by these deviations.

 

Romanian police in safety vest recommend pedestrians:

– To engage in crossing the public road only through specially arranged places (on the pedestrian crossing) and in the green color of the electric traffic light, where there is

– To ensure, even when in the pedestrian crossing, that the crossing can be safely (the vehicles are stopped before pedestrian marking, especially when the road has several lanes on the way)

– Never run across the pedestrian marker regardless of the emergency at any given time

– Not to move on the roadside, where there is no sidewalk or vestibule (predominantly in the countryside), move on the left side of the road as close as possible to the edge of the road

– In bad weather or dark, wear open-color clothing and / or reflective tapes to be visible

– Not to cross the front or rear of the public transport when they are stopped at the station

– Children should not be allowed to cross themselves – they are unpredictable and cannot appreciate distances and speeds correctly. Do not forget!

– Children imitate the road behavior of adults.

Vehicle drivers must reduce travel speed and travel with great care.
