Valasské Mezirici commemorated the day of victims of traffic accidents on Monday, November 18, with the preventive action of BESIP entitled To Be Seen. Police officers and constables handed out reflective tapes and other elements.
This time the traditional event fell on Monday. At seven o’clock in the morning stood at the crossings on the streets, Masarykova and also in nearby Kelč municipal police officers and police officers from the district department of Valasské Mezirici. “They distributed less than two thousand reflective tapes and other elements to school children. We wanted to remind the schoolchildren that being seen is particularly important for their safety, especially in autumn and winter,” said Soňa Valchářová, Head of the Traffic Administration Agenda of the Town Hall, described the course of the preventive action.
“Along with the current mapping of accident sites (more in an earlier press release here), the Being Seen event is a further step towards reducing the accident rate in our city. Children are among the most endangered traffic participants and it is very good that the BESIP Commission, together with police officers and police officers, focuses on their safety,” added Deputy Mayor.
