Drivers should increase the distance between cars, avoid sudden braking. If it is necessary to stop, the speed must be reduced gradually. When braking, press the brake pedal several times, thereby giving a signal to warn drivers of vehicles that are moving behind you. It is necessary to pay attention to the technical condition of the car, especially the brake system, and the condition of the tires. All optics must be in working order. Use a high visibility vest at stops.

 

Pedestrians are advised to:

1. Be extremely careful when crossing streets and roads;

2. Cross the street only at the designated pedestrian crossing;

3. To cross the carriageway, use, if possible, only overground or underground pedestrian crossings;

4. Do not cross the track in front of a moving vehicle;

5. Move only towards the traffic flow;

6. Wear a high visibility vest or attach reflective tapes to clothing.

 

With ice:

Walk carefully, slowly, step on the entire sole, taking into account the unevenness of the surface. Elderly people are advised to use a rubber-tipped cane or a special stick with pointed spikes. If you slip, sit down to lower your fall.

 

Pedestrians are advised to cross the street only at the marked pedestrian crossing. Do not cross the road in front of a moving vehicle, because due to the slippery road surface, the braking distance of the car is significantly increased. Move only towards the traffic flow. Use reflective elements on clothing.

1. When driving a car in these conditions, refuse unnecessary rearrangements, overtaking, advancing;

1. Be extremely careful when crossing streets and roads;

2. Cross the street only at the designated pedestrian crossing, remember that due to insufficient visibility and the slippery road surface, the driver needs more time to stop the vehicle;
