You cannot even see the town, warn pedestrians


In the past week, the city and state policemen, officials, and the mayor went through Edward Benes's Czech town square. Behind the hustle and bustle between the two department stores, they searched for people who are not seen. And they gave them reflective tapes.

The interest was enormous. "We had 150 of them bought, and after twenty minutes here we are almost none," Anna, head of crime prevention, shrugged her shoulders. Not only is it particularly advantageous to use reflective vests beyond the limits set by law, especially under reduced visibility. "Of course there is no obligation to wear it in the city, but people are not really seen and it is good to have it," she said.

Mother Teresa Loren, a new-mum, was also around the block. There was no reflective material on the stroller. "We do not go out in the dark yet, it's only a month," she laughed apologetically. Anna solved the problem on the spot and gave the reflection element. "When you cross the crossing, the first stroller goes," she added.

From preventive projects, the distribution of tapes in front of the department store is one of those more visible. But there are also those who work with a narrow target group. For example, seniors. "As part of the Together for Safety project, we have already drawn on a number of donations from the Ministry of the Interior grant program. For example, we purchased and installed security guards and chains for seniors, self-defense courses and others, "said the Prevention Manager.

On the other hand, projects focusing on youth. For example, Stop domestic violence, where women and secondary school students provide information materials on domestic violence and contacts to professional organizations. Secondary schools also offer self-defense courses.

For the youngest children, regular meetings are planned on the traffic field where the police officers explain the basics of moving on increasingly busy roads. Thanks to their cooperation with the Liberec Region, children from neighboring villages are not deprived of it either. "The county is paying these children for transport. Since children were few, a problem arose. At the instigation of our city police, however, Mr. Medal was promptly responded to ČSAD and it is all right again, "added Jake.

For social prevention this year the town reserved 410 thousand crowns. For crime prevention programs about a quarter million. Other hundreds of thousands also provide state-sponsored projects such as crime prevention assistants working at the city police, especially in socially problematic locations.

So you can identify the census takers that will visit your house


On July 23 will start the XII Population Census and Housing VII, between this date and August 16 you will receive the visit of the census takers who will ask you questions about your family.

However, there is a question that you may be asking yourself: how can I identify them? The National Institute of Statistics (INE) made this day the official presentation of the uniforms.

The census takers will be identified with a blue reflective vest and gray reflective tape with three logos embroidered opposite: the census on the left side; and that of the INE and that of the United Nations Population Fund in the law.

In the back, they will also have the census logo and the identification in white letters.

In addition, they will carry a card that identifies them, in which the DPI number of each of them will also appear, and a blue cap with the census logo embroidered on the front.

For their part, the coordinators will use a similar, but gray uniform.

Yellow vests crossed with gray stripes


Will one thing, perhaps, of the hideous standard, the obscene uniform of this anger of yellow vests (LL of November 19)?

And why as in the military a uniform? To gather under a vulgar acrylic banner in addition to gray reflective fabrics.

Under a vulgar surplice with disgusting hold and touch. At the implacable stall of deep symbols, it would be the devil to think about this foul flag. Before the rampant hatred of life and its glories of being, of us seizes. Yes, beware of the gray bands by Europe more and more who are crawling and lurking.

Pedestrians do not wear reflective elements


Many people do not realize that if they wear dark clothing without any reflective fabric, the drivers who are on the run have virtually no chance of seeing them in time. Police officers appealed to all pedestrians to underestimate the situation in non-illuminated places and carry obligatory reflective elements. They can save their lives.

Reduced visibility combined with higher speed may be a deadly combination for a reflex unmarked pedestrian. But some do not realize their vulnerability.

If pedestrian goes out of the village in low visibility on the roadside or on the edge of the road in a place which is not illuminated by public lighting, he shall be obliged to wear retro-reflective vests positioned so as to be visible to other road users' stands in the law on roads.

Law Rangers in the Moravian-Silesian Region have been focused on adhering to this important regulation over the past week.

"Outside the village and under reduced visibility, the police have checked nearly 200 pedestrians. Six of them did not have mandatory reflective elements. Three misdemeanors settled on the spot in the order, the other three reported to the local authorities, "said police spokesman Daniela.

However, no penalty or repeated warnings on pedestrians are "educational". They unnecessarily risk not only their lives but also their car drivers who are facing a fatal collision.

The use of reflective tapes or other elements increases the visibility of the people labeled as high as 200 meters.
