The vendors of the ONCE premiere identification vests

The vendors of the ONCE have begun to wear identification vests with reflective tapes as distributors of hope and luck in every corner of Spain. This element of uniformity, an old aspiration of the ONCE, now takes the form so that society can distinguish the 20,000 selling agents of the Organization.

These vests have as objectives the correct uniformity of the sales team; it's simple identification by the clientele and the general public, distinguishing them from other groups and, in particular, from possible illegal gambling agents; as well as the extension of brand image and the principles and values of the ONCE Social Group, as is already the case with the kiosks of the Organization's gaming products, in the process of reform and improvement.

These garments have been provided with a series of reflective materials and characteristics that also contributes to facilitate the exhibition and sale of gaming products that the vendors carry, as well as to facilitate the task.

During the next months, the streets and squares of all the cities and towns will see the green and yellow colors of the ONCE in the reflective vests of those who, day by day, spread illusion and receive the solidarity of the whole society.

In Castile and Leon, a total of 744 vendors will carry the new clothing.

In Cairo, cycling is a great adventure

Young Egyptians are getting more and more into the streets of Cairo by cycling. The Egyptian metropolis is notoriously known for its transport chaos. The streets are clogged with blowing cars and buses, and the city covers the smoke of exhaust fumes. The footpaths are unusable, and the word of the bike trail is probably never heard. Still, you can go to Cairo for a charity group bike ride.

Pink cycling

"I drive this way for the first time and it's very good. Only the cars are tiring. "Marat confides in a quieter one of the breaks. "I am married and have children. So to psychically react a little, I set off for something new. And the idea of supporting the fight against breast cancer is a very good opportunity. "

Marat is wearing a pink T-shirt with the campaign symbol just like other girls. October is the global month of fighting this disease. Gentlemen have yellow reflective vests.

One of the clubs is a cyclist, which organizes similar events throughout Cairo each weekend throughout Cairo. And the cycling community in Cairo is said to be growing up.

The President is an example

"After President Sísi showed up while riding a bicycle, the interest in cycling in Egypt increased a lot. And more so now that gasoline is still expensive. Many people have encouraged them to move on. We are changing the mentality of the Egyptians. "says Muhammad Hilmar.

Together with colleagues, he carries out a peloton while driving and helps those who are on the bike for the first time. There are young people in the group, but there is also Mr. Robbie, a high school mathematician, who has been excited about cycling. Similar events take place regularly.

"I'll be retiring in a moment, so I need to keep moving. The man does not get much. He is still moving through the means of transport. And the bike is both healthy and on the other hand it saves money for transport, "he said, adding that the bike gives him extra freedom of movement.

We turn left over several streets full of cars. It's not easy, it sounds like a tire, but it seems that we eventually survived without losing a single cyclist. And I think after this ride everyone would deserve a stay in the climatic spa.

The police carried out an experiment

A dark area, a police car with lights on, and in the distance an invisible group of children. This was the experiment prepared by police officers from the Suwalki road route.

Today, the police organized an experiment showing how people using reflective materials are visible and those who do not have such elements. The experiment was attended by children and youth after finished sport activities at Primary School No. 5.

Today we organize activities under the name "Reflective experiment." We want to show the invited sport group, as it actually looks pedestrian with reflections and without - informed asp.

During the experiment, in the dark region of Primary School No. 5, a police car with lights turned on was set, and two children were ahead of them in the distance, which despite the light from the car headlights was invisible. Their postures could be noticed when they approached a distance of about 30 meters.

Moments later, another two children entered the road with reflective tapes on their clothing. Although the reflective elements were small, they were visible from a distance - even from a distance of over 100 meters. Children who put on reflective vests were the most visible.

We want to encourage pedestrians to use reflective vests also in built-up areas, because, as we can see here, there are also less-lit places - said the police.

At the end, the policemen gave out reflective elements to everyone who enjoyed great interest. This shows that the police experiment has had the desired effect and the people observing it have seen how important the flares are for their safety.

Last year, Suwalki police reported 14 accidents involving pedestrians. As a result, two people died.
