It is necessarily for cyclists and pedestrian to wear vests

If a bicycle car collides, in many cases the driver or at least the coach is at fault. However, the case currently reported by criminals is exceptional - with an unexpected result and above all a warning.

The accident itself happened in the spring. The major factor was darkness. "The 24-year-old car driver was overtaking another passenger car. Overtaking began when the road was full. When overtaking, when he was driving in the opposite direction, he collided with an off-road cyclist. "said police spokesman Petra.

The 45-year-old cyclist suffered serious injuries and the rescue was taken to the hospital. Just because of the state of the cyclist, the case was taken over by criminals. They have invited you to a legal expert in the field of transport. He came to a clear conclusion: the driver could never register a cyclist and blame him for the accident. "The cyclist did not have a lighted bicycle, he had dark clothes," Petra said.

Initially, police officers began investigating the case as a suspicion of committing a crime of bodily harm. This was the case for a driver who encountered a bicycle overtaking. However, the expert's conclusions forced criminals to reassess the case. So they came to the conclusion that no crime had happened. "The cyclist was told to investigate the misdemeanor he had committed by not having a properly lit lap. The offending committee will end up with a driver who could commit a misdemeanor by starting to overtake where the line was full. " Petra explained.

The most important message from the accident is the fact that it is just starting to darken in the morning, and the evening comes earlier. And non-lighting cyclists or pedestrians without reflective elements often risk their health and life in a number of traffic situations. "Police will focus again in the coming days and weeks on lighting cyclists and wearing reflective vests in pedestrians. In addition to controls, we will also focus on preventive actions. At recent motorcycle races, policemen gave away reflective brace. In various other check-ups or preventive actions in schools, we distribute reflective ribbons on the sleeves. Experience shows that even such a small thing can really save human life. "said the police spokesman.

Proper reflective clothing or prescription enlightened bicycle may not in itself mean anything if a cyclist or pedestrian is unruly. This was also shown by the case that happened five years ago under the railroad overpass. The darkness and insensitivity of the man who wanted to transfer the bicycle across the tracks played a major role in a tragic case. The cyclist crossed the tracks at the underpass, the train collided, and the man died.

It is precisely that the pedestrian and cyclist discipline is a big problem. They often do not respect the alarms or crossings. Tragic moments have already happened at the crossroads both in the settlement and at the local railway station and almost exactly on the day before three years at the crossing at the brewery. Again, in the play, the dark autumn of darkness played in addition to the indiscretion.

The 36-year-old cyclist did not respect light and sound alert signs or shutters, and he entered the railway crossing. Unfortunately, when the passenger train arrived. The man stalked in the middle of the crossing and fell. The passing train knocking him down. Even though the animation attempts the man did not survive the collision.
