The tragic accident, in which two lives were extinguished, moves emotionally in a wide region. On the main road line Kaolin – Prague, near a petrol station near Pesky road there was a passenger car with two pedestrians who are not wearing the hi vis vest. According to unconfirmed information, it should be a married couple. After the collision, the man was dead, the woman, despite the care of the rescuers, eventually succumbed to her injuries.
This was confirmed by Petra, a spokesperson for the Central Bohemian Rescue Service. “The first person suffered injuries incompatible with life; unfortunately the doctor could only declare death. The other person rescued the rescuers for several dozen minutes, but despite all efforts, it did not succeed, “said the spokesman. Cologne firefighters intervened on site to illuminate the scene of the incident, and tried to provide psychic assistance to the driver of a passenger car together with a post-traumatic care team.
Only during the night, the victims of the accident were able to identify. “It was a 66 year old man and a sixty-five-year-old woman,” police spokesperson Martina said.
The huge misery has become a topic of many discussions. “It is a misfortune on all sides, including a driver who has been devastated all the time, and perhaps the pedestrian may not even have a chance to see it in time,” Stanislaw, for example, left.
According to him, he was completely hungry when he realized that he was passing by a gas station shortly before a fatal accident. “But it was a little light,” he added. Just around the visibility of pedestrians is now a great debate among people. According to unconfirmed information, both pedestrians who were killed in Pesky road should be in dark clothes and without reflective tapes or other signs that would make them darker in the dark. Therefore, the police again appeal to pedestrians and cyclists not to underestimate visibility.
The cause of a number of traffic accidents is insufficient visibility. With reduced visibility, pedestrians are, of course, the most vulnerable. Drivers who have injured a pedestrian or a cyclist agree that they have not seen it at all or too late. Cars and motorcycles, as well as cyclists, are obliged to shine, pedestrians do not have such an obligation. For their greater safety, however, pedestrians and cyclists would have to use reflective materials in particular. It is recommended to motorcyclists. “It also happened to me that I was glad to avoid the unlit cyclist. In addition, when I called him out of the window, where he had light, he screamed at me vulgarly, “one of the drivers described his unpleasant experience.
