The public in safety vest tried to block the hunt

Socialists in reflective vest from the organization “Silesia against the hunter” tried to block the hunt, which on Saturday morning was to take place in the forest near Gliwice. You do not have to kill animals. Why are you doing this? They asked hunters. In retaliation, hunters blocked the car of one of the volunteers and called the police.

 

On Saturday morning, hunting enthusiasts from the Hunting Association in Gliwice met near Gliwice. At the edge of the forest, a dozen or so men lit a fire and began preparations. Unexpectedly, a group of people in reflective vests appeared nearby. – We do not agree to the killing of animals. We cannot understand how in the 21st century, when people do not have to hunt to feed them, a ritual happens. There are no arguments for those who shoot animals. We want to prevent them. Therefore, we will walk through the forest on the line of fire. We have high visibility vests, so we will be clearly visible. Perhaps in this way, we will be able to protect even one wild boar or a roe – convinced Aleksandra from Bytom.

 

The community immediately caught the attention of the hunters. Are our touts? poked. Some of them, however, immediately reacted nervously. We have to call the police. They asked. We are not doing anything wrong. Everyone has the right to enter the forest. This is our common good – the social workers said. We tried to talk to the hunters, but they did not want to speak. They started the collection; one of them started playing on the hunting horn. Thanks to the destruction of fields, we lose collections – the farmer was upset, who rode a tractor with an oblong trailer in his place, probably for transporting dead animals.

 

Meanwhile, several hunters after the conference began to photograph car registrations with which volunteers came. It looks like an attempt to intimidate – they said. In response, the hunters set a “Caution hunting” sign by the path to the forest. – It means that everyone is entering the forest at his own risk now. That is, the forest is now in the possession of hunters, not walkers – says Bedeck.

 

The hunters blocked the volunteer car

Hunters did not think about giving up hunting. They got into their cars and drove into the forest along a dirt road. Volunteers in safety vest followed them. The cavalcade stopped in the middle of the forest, the hunters decided to consult once again. At one point, one of the hunters blocked Babushka’s car with his car. Then the cavalcade wanted to move on, but the social workers did not allow it. They stood across the road and demanded the unlocking of the car. There was confusion. Hunters and social workers started calling the police.

 

 

The Bakery has sponsored safety vests for students

Exactly 109 students of the Local Primary School named after the authors of Children’s Literature received as part of our campaign reflective vests, which are to improve the safety of pedestrians and cyclists on the road.

 

This time the sponsor of the vests was Pinker, having in our podia and not only many commercial outlets (including the school). In the primary school, everything was perfectly prepared as usual: on the wide corridor, benches and chairs were set up, on which pupils and teachers sat. We explained to the little ones why exactly the safety vest is to be used, we asked them to give the knowledge to their parents and grandparents right away.

 

It was not without a sweet treat from the sponsor, the owner of Bakery brought with him children’s cakes. All the children received the gifts and high visibility vests; we will visit more schools soon.

The action to improve the safety of cyclists

Last weekend, 1-2 July 2017, a picnic for cyclists was held to raise awareness among cyclists and car drivers. The whole action is under the patronage of the Ministry of Interior and Administration. Everyone will receive a safety vest.

 

Family picnic with a town of attractions for spectators and cyclists was part of the weekend event organized by the Police Headquarters. The event was supposed to pay attention to the safety level of cyclists. The statistics in which you were wounded or killed are terrifying.

 

According to the data on the KGP website from January to May 2017, fans of two wheels participated in 2628 accidents and collisions. As a result, 138 cyclists died and 2,379 were injured, most of them are not wearing the reflective clothing. According to the Chief Police Headquarters, collisions involving cyclists occur most often during improper maneuvering.

 

The cyclists themselves are also not guilty. Their negligible knowledge of traffic regulations can lead to extremely dangerous situations. Like the one in Gliwice, when the cyclist collided with a passenger car. It turned out that the lover of the two wheels ignored the road signs and drove down the street, right under the wheels of an oncoming car.

 

Sedro during the weekend picnic also encouraged cyclists to use reflective vests significantly increasing their visibility on the road and helmets. This last element, with possible collision with vehicles, can save the head from serious injuries.

 

Check the lights in the car for free

As part of the nationwide campaign, “Your lights – your safety,” drivers from Czestochowa could check for free the correctness of the lighting settings in their cars. Uniforms explained to the participants of the action how important it is in the autumn-winter period to have good visibility on the road. The police officers also handed out reflective vests and bands, which will certainly help to improve the safety of unprotected road users.

 

The impact on road safety depends largely on the drivers themselves. From the skills and experience of the person who will sit behind the wheel and its psychophysical state. Road safety is also influenced by the technical condition of vehicles.

 

Many drivers remember that you need to wipe the headlamps when they are dirty or replace the bulbs if they are burned out. Few remember, however, that you also need to set the lights at the right angle. In the autumn / winter period, the wrong setting of lights often causes the illumination of other lights, or it is too late to notice a pedestrian or an obstacle on the road.

 

As part of the nationwide campaign, “Your lights – your safety,” drivers in safety vest from Czestochowa could make a free review of the correct setting of car lights last Saturday.

Go to school on foot with in safety vest

A program that teaches adults and kids to do with safety vest and without cars: Kia Motors launched it in the UK. This project – called Walking Bus. has however clear social purposes, such as pushing school children to make more movement, an aspect that has not escaped the South Korean car manufacturer that has given its support to the initiative together with the Olympic Louise Hazel, chosen as testimonial to spread the Walking Bus program. It is about bringing the boys together, all gifted as the chaperones of high visibility vest, in a sort of ‘snake’ of pedestrians, who moves neatly to the side of the road and under the constant supervision of some adults.

 

Research carried out in this area has shown that in Britain, 68% of boys and 76% of school-age girls are currently unable to meet the recommended minimum level of moderate exercise for at least an hour a day. In addition, 63% of children are still brought daily by car in front of the school gates. “I think that Walking Bus is a great initiative – said Louise Hazel – as it is an easy way to do something good for children’s health and encourages kids to stay active and fit every day,” said Hazel in yellow vest. It is great to know that this program can help reduce emissions and road traffic and helps to create a healthier and safer environment to walk around.”

 

 

 

 

 

Traffic Police in action: failure, what to do

A commonplace failure can hide a serious investment risk. The friends of the Traffic Police in safety vest explain to us what to do if we stay in motion with the bike or the car both on the highway and on the highway.

 

Thanks to the fundamental help of the State Police and the Traffic Police Section of Cremona, directed by Deputy Chief Justice Assistant Federica Deledda, we try to clarify different behaviors that have a direct and immediate impact on the safety of our travels by car and motorbike. We boarded the police cars to respond in a simple and immediate way to many doubts and to clarify various aspects related to road traffic.

 

At this address, you will find the topics covered by the editors with the Traffic Police. Today we face a situation that a priori (and making the spells) we tend to remove from our thoughts. A trivial failure can hide a serious investment risk. The friends of the Traffic Police tell us what to do if we stay in motion with the bike or the car both on the highway and on the highway.

 

What to do in case of vehicle failure

Our car or motorbike stops on the road to a breakdown is a potential danger to ourselves and other users. As drivers, we become pedestrians on busy roads and we must immediately get away from the investment. Once this is done, it is equally important to alert other people to the presence of our stationary vehicle, which may not be clearly visible.

 

So let us recap what we have to do:

  1. Let’s get in security. In addition, we put those traveling with us safe away from the road.
  2. We give maximum visibility. We use the emergency lights and the triangle to signal our presence. We wear the high visibility vest. We also report the presence of scrap or oil on the road. Our behavior must change depending on whether we are in the city, on extra-urban roads or on the motorway.

 

In the event of a breakdown on an urban road, we turn on the emergency lights, put on the reflective vest and position the triangle at a distance of at least 50 meters from the vehicle. When we cannot move the vehicle, we wear the high visibility jacket and, paying the utmost attention to the other vehicles, take us with the passengers to a safe place. If necessary, we pass the guardrail (with the foresight to have checked before there are no sudden changes or dangers). At this point, we can call the roadside assistance indicating precisely where we are.

 

In the city, we signal the danger situation to other vehicles, placing the triangle and inviting other users to slow down. We wear the reflective vest, even if it is not mandatory (we must use it on motorways and extra-urban roads instead).

The “high visibility” jackets for the children

To ensure maximum safety for the numerous children enrolled in the pied bus, the municipal administration has acquired 120 high visibility vests. “The vest – explains Sara, municipal councilor for education – will be distributed in the coming days: it is a useful measure in the context of a service of accompanying children to increasingly safer school.

 

The Pied bus, thanks to the active contribution of about 30 adult volunteers in safety vest as chaperones, performs a task of great importance, as it offers pupils a moment of socialization and, at the same time, allows the most healthy and simple physical activity, walking. It is certain that an activity of this kind requires an eye on the part of the municipal administration.”

 

The children enrolled in the Pied bus of Bellagio (an initiative desired by previous administrations and active for many years) are a hundred. The reflective vest is designed to be worn both in summers, over a shirt or a shirt, or in winter, over a coat or a jacket.

 

 

Road safety: a high visibility vest mandatory for motorcyclists

A new law will force French motorcyclists, starting next year, to have a high visibility safety vest with them while driving. The transalpine centaurs must wear the garment over the technical garments, under penalty of a rather salty fine.

 

From January 2016, in France, motorcyclists will also be obliged to wear a high visibility safety vest. The new rule of the Transalpine road code, provides that centaurs are not obliged to purchase a technical garment specifically designed for motorcycles, but that will be enough the “classic” yellow vest that, even we Italians, we are obliged to keep in the car. In the case of two wheels (in reality the obligation also applies to three-wheeled scooters and quads), the garment will necessarily be worn while driving and not hidden in the saddle. Also the sanctions are ready: who should not wear it, in fact, could incur a fine from 11 to 135 Euros, a figure considered too high by the French Federation of Motorcyclists, already contrary to the law and that would like the use of the vest is a personal choice.

 

As is clear, the provision is aimed at protecting the safety of motorcyclists, making them much more visible on the roadway: since 2008, in fact, when the garment became mandatory in the event of a breakdown or stop, the number of victims has dropped. In addition to the FFMC, many motorcyclists turn up their nose, already fitted with reflective bands on helmets and technical jackets. In Italy, for the moment, there is no change to the code in this direction, even if common sense recommends to always wearing a garment equipped with at least high visibility strips.

 

 

New cycling clothes for the coldest seasons

For all the fans of the Game of Thrones series, “winter is coming” and although in Spain the fall is delaying a little more than normal, the cold begins to make an appearance and every time we have to put more clothes when we went out to shoot. The Taylor brand has presented four new safety garments for men and women that stand out for their advanced technology and personalization.

 

New culottes, vest and jacket by Taylor

The Spanish company Taylor has managed to differentiate itself from the rest by developing quality cycling clothing and giving the client the opportunity to customize it according to their preferences. In the case of this new outerwear, the same thing still happens and they can be personalized whenever a minimum order is placed.

 

Cycling windbreaker B38

The safety vest can be one of the favorite garments among cyclists since it is very easy to carry it in a pocket and offers great comfort with wind or cold. The B38 vest from Taylor is made to provide the best performance with the least weight, thus offering windproof and waterproof fabric on the front and shoulders, while the back includes a very breathable mesh fabric. It has several reflective details ideal for the night and the back pocket and chest are closed with zipper. Once folded the vest B38 of Taylor really occupies little.

 

Bib shorts for women B94

The Taylor women long bib is designed to fit the feminine physiognomy and the top suspenders are made in one piece and are crossed to promote comfort and support of the chest. These straps have no seams and their fabric is micro-perforated to improve perspiration. The reflective fabric incorporates the Aortic membrane that protects from the wind and the cold, and its chamois is the TM EVO that with flat seams and a fastening tape promises to be an ideal companion in long days on the bike.

The articles to improve the safety of cyclists

EMV now offers a battery of items designed to improve the safety of cyclists because they are equipped with LED direction indicators and safety vest that can be seen by pedestrians and other vehicles more easily. In a social context like the current one in which the run-ins to cyclists, unfortunately, are too frequent, this new promotion can help to prevent accidents and will undoubtedly increase the safety of cyclists.

 

Specifically, the newspaper presents three different products for cyclists with LED address indicators. They are intended to ensure that the cyclist’s safety is as great as possible, in order to avoid accidents, and make driving safer. It is a backpack with reservation coupon one reflective vest, with reserve coupon and one rear seat bag for 39.99, with reserve coupon. To be able to make the reservation will have to deliver 5 Euros. The reservation coupon will always appear on the advertising page.

 

Technical characteristics

The 3 items have 4 lights: turn to the left, turn to the right, driving forward and stop (emergency lights). The remote control is placed on the handlebar of the bike to use it easily and quickly. It is programmed once and, if the battery is not discharged, there is no need to reprogram.

 

Additional Information

Vests, backpacks and bags for cyclists. The novelty is that they indicate the direction you are going to take, or if you are going to continue going straight. As if they were the turn signals of a car. They include a control that is placed on the handlebar. Pressing it, the light indicates the direction you are going to take, or if on the contrary, you will continue in a straight line.

 

According to the studies of the Pone Freon platform, one third of cyclists without reflective clothing have ever had an accident, increasing up to 45% in those who use it every day. These percentages, so alarming, are not due to the imprudence of cyclists since only 40% of accidents are attributable to cyclists. Bikers and cyclists are the most vulnerable, their accidents being much more serious than those of other types of vehicles are. In recent days, in addition, in the Communicate Valencia there has been a series of deadly abuses of cyclists, who have to make us aware of the fragility of the cyclist.
