The police in Ostrow appeal to the inhabitants of the Ostrów to use reflective vests/bands for their health and life when they walk outside the built-up area on the left side of the road in the evening.

 

The closer to the end of the year, the shorter the days. In the evening and the morning, mists limit visibility on the road. Such conditions are not favorable for both drivers and pedestrians. Before we decide to go out onto an unlit road without glare, let's "put ourselves in the role" of a driver who will be driving this road and will notice a pedestrian-only at the last moment.

 

In autumn and winter, we choose a darker color for clothes. Unfortunately, when we come out onto an unlit road, we virtually "merge" with the surroundings. From a distance, the driver will only notice the outline of our character, which may well be perceived as a forest animal that is present in large numbers near the roads at this time of year. Therefore, for your safety, it is worth wearing reflective vests when walking outside the built-up area unlit on the left side of the road.

 

In this way, we signal drivers to be more careful due to the presence of a pedestrian. By putting on a reflective vest, we increase our chances of reaching our destination safely.
