The institution informed the Parents’ and in turn supported the concerns.

 

Greiser and Mühlner sought cooperation with the Road Patrol in Torgau. “In Delitzsch we did not,” lamented Greiser. Every month there were at the daycare center, a 90-minute program in which the children practiced playfully safe behavior. “We placed primarily on value that the children tested their knowledge in real traffic,” says Steffen in safety clothing. For this purpose they went the way from kindergarten to primary school East in close proximity from which children could judge for them when they can cross the road safely. “Children six years old have difficulty assessing the distance and the speed right,” Greiser said. “When practicing it but was getting better.”

Half the non-front-end quota could be 200, the renewal and equipping of the truck fleet with assistance systems between 40 and 80 haulers’ less. Up to 80 traffic victims are less to be achieved by driving training for motorcyclists, older drivers and drivers. In each case about 50 victims could be avoided by improved visibility of the pedestrians and cyclists, by better safety clothing of the motorcyclists and by the increased wearing of bicycle helmets in connection with helmets for pedelecs.

 

“We are at a point where we cannot make much progress with individual measures and purely on the road, and if we want to significantly reduce the number of traffic tonnages, we must include the infrastructure and the behavioral measures of the transport sector,” explains Professor Rodolfo in reflective vest, Chairman of the VDI-FVT and Centerleiter at Daimler.

Pedestrians and cyclists: In the darkness should wear safety clothing
