Heroes in safety vests

Safety vests are helpful – but also cool? Some first graders find: no. You should take a look at bikers!

 

Safety vests – are not they a blessing invention? In bright red, reflective green or neon yellow and some reflective materials, they help to make sure road workers are more reliably recognized, and garbage collectors can change the side of the road more calmly. Railway workers are not allowed to go to the tracks without the eye-catcher. There is even severely separated: green is the security service. Red are the ones who are walking. Equally struggling runners look out, scurrying through the woods and meadows dressed in signal colors in the darkness that is now breaking in, in order to catch the attention of road users on the way there. And – little look back at the summer holidays – woe, you get caught on the road in Italy without the airy clothes. For every human, a neon top must be on board. In short, once the warning vest had a little the nastiness of the proletariat, today it is part of everyday life, almost like the house key and wallet.

 

Not everyone will find the safety vest cool

But what did you hear recently at the presentation of the new school plan? If the first graders were initially proud of the vest, which was equipped to start school, “specialists” would leave them home after just a few days. This was reported by the managing director Karl. After all, a real guy did not want to “come out” as a freshman. “I can only confirm that,” says Mayor, father of three school-age boys.

 

So ends the project of the ADAC Foundation, which wanted to set the security action “Accents with foresight”. Father jogs through the village with his vest, his mother rides to work, the offspring make you cool. Since all the dunning helps nothing. But wait, what is it doing around the corner? A chrome-gleaming motorcycle with a rich sound, the handlebars as high as if the stars were to be taken from the sky and with wheels like rubber rollers. The biker wears over the black leather air: a safety vest with reflective tapes. And if that is not a real guy!

Silence, it turns for road safety

Wednesday, the streets of Billonnière were occupied by a shooting for TV Vendee around the wearing of the yellow reflective vest.

 

The initiative

 

“The yellow vest with reflective material protects it, but not everything!” The slogan served as a frame for the filming of elected representatives of the Municipal Youth Council (CMJ). The young counselors wrote the script of four sketches. They will play them themselves.

 

The idea was born last year in the CMJ with social action, during a meeting with the director of the local channel TV Vendee. “We thought why not shoot safety clips designed by the kids themselves? “Tell the supervisors.

 

The prefecture organizing a week dedicated to yellow vests at the end of October, immediately gave its approval. This action of the center of social action, led by Severna, is supervised by Major Laurence of gendarmerie, the representatives of Code Rousseau, Michel and Alain.

 

A message carried by young people

 

The members of the Social Committee are responsible for safety and the TV Vendee team. Laure and Hervey take part in the project. “When ideas come from children, they are better received by young people, they know what they are talking about and have their own experience,” says Major Laurence Lorena.

 

This Wednesday, filming was mostly on small country roads but next week it will be in the heart of the village, with other dangers to know and avoid. “Sainte-Foy represents the small rural communes. This filming could have been done everywhere in France”, supports Michel.

 

At the end of the shooting, after broadcasting for a fortnight at the end of October, a yellow vests discount will be given to all the children enrolled in the commune, in the presence of the gendarmerie, with advice to wear them when they take the bus at middle School.

 

“Teens are balking, but if we give the habit to young children to wear safety clothing, it will become an automatism for them, as today, the seatbelt for motorists. “

Why do you have to dress like a construction manager

Welcome to a world where the orange reflective vest, the sanitary hood and the safety shoe play it “survival solutions” in urban jungle.

 

Three options are available for the podium pillar to prepare for the advent of the post-human – an allegory of an uncertain future that everyone, the baroque demiurge way Alessandro Michele to the minimalist convinced trend JW Anderson, dreads.

 

First: to enter fashion orders and to wander in this very closed circle in a dress of bure and bare-feet of tourism.

 

Secondly, put on his gadget glasses and his amphibian suit, and finally be the trunk on the wings of a cyborg – dragon, chameleon or humanoid with three eyes.

 

Tertio: sign for life in the secondary sector and get the services of the house uniform: parka and pants with reflective tapes, helmet (or hood) and

Safety shoes, all carved in traffic light colors – green, yellow, red and ripe orange.

 

No less doubtful aesthetically but much more prophetically than the DHL t-shirt collective released in 2016, this is the option chosen this season by Simons, anxious to denounce the reign of fake news and prepare for the reign of an all-powerful AI, dresses the woman and man Calvin Klein in a high security uniform, between the construction engineer and the firefighter of New

 

John Galliano at Maison Margiela, Marcia Prada and Christopher Bailey at Burberry apply the same security policy, slipping an orange vest with reflective material under a overcoat, on a mini-dress or changing the parka to a bionic stage, between the garment cosmonaut and sapper, worn with a pencil skirt and sneakers survival blanket.

Lack of teachers, schools without building and classes

For some it has not been easy to separate from their parents in the return to school. This course starts with strikes and protests about the conditions that some teachers and students have had to face at the end of the holiday.

 

With the reflective vest, helmet, and goggles: first day of school in Getafe. “This school, instead of a school is a work,” they say. An unfinished work. Because Miguel de Cervantes, instead of children loaded with school material, workers come loaded with construction material.

 

“We have a dining room that will be saturated because they have not built the new dining room, we do not have a gym because they have not built it, we are missing six classrooms because they have not built all the classrooms,” explains Sara, mayor of Getafe.

 

Some 200 students without a classroom will teach in the hallways. Those of another school in there should have started in April and did it in August. So on one side worker, on the other children. Repeated work material thrown in the yard and children without classroom.

 

In another center, silence: first day of classes without children, they do not start the course because there are no counselors. “Last year the school had a third of students with needs,” say some of the parents.

 

In Cantabria, the children are in the yard because they do not have teachers. They are protesting in front of the Ministry of Education. More than 60% have supported the strike against the partial elimination of the reduced working hours of September and June.

 

In Orense they protest because there are more children in a classroom for children than the 25 allowed. In Alicante at the school, 160 children will begin classes in barracks, which are already two-storey. Education says that it has been invested, but that in four years, it does not give time to everything.

Traffic guard Viersen is supported

For the Viersen with their project “visibility”, the members of the KKV Viersen, Catholics and administration, gather at their events, so that the donation piggy bank in a year contains a sizeable amount.

 

Already in the 15th year, the KKV is active with its social project. The movement program of the traffic guard for the primary school classes was presented by managing director Hans Jansen. It is important for students to wear reflective vests when go out at day or night.

 

For the past 68 years, the Viersen has been working as a traffic safety organization on the goal of “no dead in traffic”. “We start our work at the maternity ward,” says Hans Jansen, Managing Director of the Verkehrswacht, who presented the KKV Viersen, Catholics and administration, with such important work. The club donated five bowls for babies to the General Hospital Viersen so that they could get home safely after the birth. “We have moderators who do parent evenings in kindergartens. Here we show the parents with a children’s belt sled that can happen in an accident or in a dark room, how important reflective clothing is. However, we are also active in schools, for example in cycling education and also for senior citizens, our work is becoming increasingly important. “Each of these target groups is characterized by certain potential hazards, which are to be reduced by means of target group programs.

With safety vests safely to school

The kick-off event of the community campaign “Safe to school – safe home” was filled on Thursday at the Jean Paul School. The school district hosted this event for new school children and their parents.

 

The beginning of school is an exciting event especially for the first-graders and their parents, said school director Owe villages. The action “Safe to school – safe home” exist since 1969 and has been an important concern since that time, all at the beginning of the school year, because it is about the safety on the way to school. For decades, various measures and police protection have ensured that all students come to school unscathed, emphasized Dormer. But the school also made an important contribution to the exploration of the school environment, said the school director – even if there is no complete security, said Droller to consider.

 

In Upper Franconia, 8584 first graders were enrolled, 3.5 percent more than in the previous year, said government vice-president Thomas Engel. Many parents remembered their own school days and whether their children could get along with the teacher or get used to school. But what can one do so that nothing happens to the children on the way to school? Engel pointed out that a whole network of Upper Franconia cares about the safety on the way to school. Professional helpers, such as the police, but also many volunteers, institutions such as the VR-Bank or companies that provide financial resources, care about the safety of the youngest.

 

“Children learn from their parents”

 

Traffic education started very early and the children first learned from their parents, Engel said. “Children see parents as role models”. And this role model of the parents is just in demand at the beginning of the school year. Safety is not just a task of the parents, but a common task.

 

Cobourg’s second mayor, Birgit Weber, recalled her own school enrollment in 1969 at the elementary school. Exactly this year, the campaign “Safe to school – safe home” was launched. At that time, the first years were equipped with yellow caps. In the classroom there was the subject of traffic education and in school the bicycle license was made. Since that time, a lot has happened and today the children would be equipped with throws the traffic guard and reflective vests of the ADAC.

 

 

Too many accidents

The time of starting school was a very intense time for the police, said police commissioner Thomas. For several weeks every day, several dozen school trips would be carried out, and that would be as intensive as possible. His colleagues would love to do that and pay attention to the safety of the weakest traffic participants. Last year, 32 000 traffic accidents involving 5300 wounded and 57 fatalities were recorded in Upper Franconia. But there were also school-leaving accidents, with 44 students injured and eight of them were seriously injured. This figure, according to Thomas, is too high and the police are trying to minimize it. Motorists often did not give the first-graders the necessary attention. In the area of the police headquarters Upper Franconia, there are 1645 school helpers, 745 school students, 117 school bus attendants and 511 school bus drivers, reported the police council.

 

Distribute over 1000 throws

The first-graders are the weakest road users in traffic, Sebastian said in his capacity as the second chairman of the watch tower. Over 1000 reflective tapes have been distributed in the city and in the district. Sebastian directed his appeal to the parents to ensure that children carry these throw consistently, because especially in the dark season, the recognizability is particularly important.

 

In the 2018/2019 school year, 1062 pupils, including 323 in the city and 739 in the district of Cobourg, begin their school life. The kick-off event was musically designed by Neil Stefano and Noelle from the Music School.

Holiday fun in the last holiday week

Also in the last holiday week, there were plenty of adventure for children as part of the urban children’s holiday program. 12 children met for a great afternoon at the shooting club. At the beginning, interesting facts about the air rifle and the shooting sport were explained. Then it went for a part already in the shooting range, the other went outside and played darts. Thanks to the electronic shooting range there are conditions such as the Olympic facility in Munich. Proper stance, holding the air rifle, charging and aiming and then hitting the middle proved not so easy. After a few test shots, the points were counted to crown the “winner” at the end of the day. Between the passes, the children tested the marksmanship at the darts competition, played foosball or football or fortified themselves with cool drinks.

 

For the second time, the brewery offered a guided tour. 15 children, equipped with a safety vest, made their way to the interior of the brewery. After the participants had learned about the basic ingredients of brewing art such as hops, malt, water and yeast, the very brave ones were allowed to examine the huge beer tanks from the inside. In order to come back stronger after the long excursion, the brewery offered children an original brewery pretzel with apple spritzer.

 

15 boys and girls attended the program “Children’s Yoga”. After the welcome by the yoga teacher, it was a round of introductions and then directly into the “lotus position”, the seat of yoga. In this attitude, there was first a meditation, to calm down and to strengthen the concentration.

 

This concentration had to show the children in exercises such as the caterpillar, cat, dog. To greet the morning and welcome the sun, the children learned the sun salutation.

 

A karate introductory training also took place in the last holiday week. After the welcome by head coach Schlitz and his assistant trainers, there was a small karate quiz followed by warm-up exercises. It continued with targeted stroke exercises, with concentration and body control played a major role.

 

Children wore safety clothing were taught a step-fist-kick combination, which they then tested on special padding. The children were working up a sweat. In between, there were always games that required the skill and teamwork of the children.

 

The next day, the Taekwondo-Do-taster training took place. After the welcome by Christian Forster the warm-up started and the kids learned how to count in Korean. With much enthusiasm, the children were immediately afterwards able to prove their kicking ability in the “foil test”. The stronger the kick was, the louder was the sound that made the special foil. The self-liberation from hand and strangleholds was popular. With the right technology, every little fighter could free himself from the grip of his opponent. A shadow fight at the end and splitting a board with a single kick was the highlight of the day. At the end of the introductory training everyone received a small present from the Taekwondo-Do Center.

 

18 young people came together for the “adventure trip through the night” with six employees in the room rented by the community in the Adam Rauscher house. After the welcome by the leaders and staff and a “get-acquainted game”, the kids were divided into groups for a city game. Much joy made approximately two hours lasting game, whereby it went around the topic: “all banana or what?”. For example, the kids had to measure a car length with a banana. That makes you hungry is not a problem. So the young people made their way to dinner. Anyone who was in the mood for a stick bread with jam afterwards could bake this on a glowing dish prepared with charcoal.

 

Then they set off on the torch night walk, which then had to be stopped because it literally seemed to fall in the water.

 

Back at the Adam Rauscher house, a lot was played, rattled and romped, until a DVD ushered in the end of the evening.

 

The next morning, after a copious breakfast, the young people listened to a biblical story, presented by Martin, youth lecturer at the community. A heartfelt thank you go out from the community to all the parents who have trusted to entrust their children for a day and a night.

 

On Thursday afternoon, 30 children who wear hi vis vests met at the Bowling Center. After the welcome groups were formed, who played together on one of the eight tracks. After a few “normal” game, the children were allowed to bowl under a black light. The girls and boys were there with joy and zeal, so that in the end the group with the most points could enjoy a free drink. The best player and the best player got a bowling voucher.

 

There was a lot of fun for 20 children at “Game and fun around the horse” at the riding club at the end of the week. In a beautiful weather, the children got a tour and a stable guide with explanations in attitude, handling and care of the horses and first basics for the physique of the animals. Especially the horse Thor got many strokes of the mostly female participants. They were also allowed to take part in a quiz on the knowledge they learned so well that initially no clear winner was found. For the last determined winner, there was then pony riding for free.

Unprotected road users

Today, traffic police throughout the country conduct national control and prevention activities in the name of “unprotected road users”. They are designed to improve the safety of pedestrians and cyclists – these road users are particularly vulnerable to the tragic consequences of these events in accidents.

 

During the course of the operation, the supervision will cover areas that are particularly dangerous for pedestrians. That is, passages where pedestrians are detained through busy roads. Police officers will pay attention to whether drivers are trying to use “stronger laws” related to pedestrians, such as exercising priority at a crossroads, especially during so-called “green arrows”.

 

We remind managers that the school year has begun and that children and adolescents can be found on the roads near the school. These are road users who should be given special attention. It happens that children, especially when they move around in a group and focus on conversation. They act unscrupulously, such as crossing the road or walking the wrong road.

 

Currently, the police are carrying out activities “safe way to go to school” focusing on the safety of children and adolescents near the school. We are promoting the drivers so they can drive carefully and focus on the youngest participants in the movement.

 

Regardless of the season, the driver should clearly see unprotected road users. Therefore, pedestrians must wear reflective vests, especially where required by regulations, that is, after darkness outside the building area. Remember, when preparing a school for beginners, be sure to put a reflective element(like reflective vests or reflective tapes) on his coat.

 

The use of reflective materials increases the visibility of the pedestrian several times, giving the driver more time to perform the manipulation of the pass or brake.

A gift for drivers

The 13th Sobriety Days are underway. Traditionally, the police joined the action of the City, which from today to Saturday will lead intensified checks on the sobriety of drivers. On Thursday, motorists were given a small gift from the president.

 

During Thursday’s action. No drunk driver was stopped. All the inspected, received a small gift from the city: a first aid kit, a reflective vest, a car smell, a pen and a leash. “I have nothing to hide, and I think that there are a lot of irresponsible drivers who get behind the wheel on a double gas and should be severely punished.” says Tome, the bus driver stopped today to control by the Kalisz road route.

 

The numbers speak for themselves. From the beginning of the year to the end of August, Kalisz police officers detained 284 drunk drivers. Many of them may not have suffered any consequences of their irresponsible behavior except for the witnesses’ reaction. So it was last Friday. The 65-year-old woman driving the Peugeot hit a parked Renault during a reverse maneuver. “When a people approached woman to ask if she needed help, the manager tried to leave the scene. The man realized that the driver could be under the influence of alcohol. He decided to react. He pulled out the keys from the Peugeot substation and called the police officers in. “says asp. Anna, spokesman for the Kalisz police.

 

The woman had 2.5 per of alcohol in the body. Driving a vehicle in the state of intoxication in the light of the law in force in Poland is a crime for which a fine or a penalty of restriction of liberty or imprisonment of up to 2 years may be imposed.

 

The 23rd Sobriety Days were inaugurated on Saturday in the Main Square. This is an action that aims to promote life without addictions. “Tomorrow we address socio-therapeutic day care centers to a traditional event: a run, attractions under the slogan ‘Lenya Lode’. On Saturday, a family festival will take place, at the scout’s stanchion. This is an event that has been accompanying the sobriety days from the very beginning. It is an opportunity to meet people from the sobriety environment, to have fun together sober. On Saturday evening, we invite you to the bicycle and roller rally ‘Kalisz is an example’.” says Janus, head of the Department of Social and Housing Affairs.

 

The start of the rally is planned at dusk, around 19.30. The ride will start with the participants’ meeting in the parking lot. The first 300 cyclists and skaters who will come to the “start line” will receive high visibility vests from the organizers.
