Safety vest make you safer on the way to school

The pupils of the first classes of Gruenberg School got reflective safety vest on Thursday. Policewoman Christine Neumann presented the more than 100 students from five classes their Awe-inspiring.

 

In keeping with the beginning of autumn were the youngest accept their safety vests. The bright yellow vest with hood is fitted from the front, rear and sides with reflectors.

 

To illustrate the students how important it is also to carry the vest and not to leave home, caring Kerstin, class teacher of 1e, the policewoman Christine Neumann for the handover of the West. Before handing they sharpened students the importance of safety vests.

 

“The West are in the dark winter months especially important,” said the cop, “” often, students are seen late in winter with dark jackets of motorists.”Neumann has been involved in youth work of the police and is familiar with such cases. Especially the very young students would often overlooked by motorists, especially when they do is deceive dark clothing.

 

Then it would be at the Gruenberg School closing. “If possible, invite the children to the West now every morning on the way to school wear,” predicts Kerstin. But even on day trips is to be used the high visibility vest. On their own initiative, the idea to buy safety vests for the first year was implemented.

 

The teacher took advantage of an offer from the ADAC. “Each year can be ordered Basic Schools ADAC safety vests for the new first-graders,” said the teacher, “we have now used this offer.”

 

The West got the school even free. This was made possible the existing since 2010 Project “Safety vests for school” of the Automobile Club. Since 2010 the Foundation supports “Gerber Engel” the action. With the high visibility vests to the safety of children in traffic greatly improved. While children are seen with normal clothes only from a distance of about 30 to 40 meters, they illuminate the motorist now already from a distance of about 100 meters towards.

 

To make safety vests for the students even more attractive, the ADAC has come up with two mascots for the reflective vest. Traffic Detectives Felix and Frieda, who can also be seen on the vest, are that motivate children to wear the vest.

The inspection sticker of safety vest

The “GTÜ automotive testing” headquartered in Jock is a service-oriented company for vehicle tests of all kinds. The two graduate engineers Rolf and Joachim Steer in safety vest are experienced test engineers.

 

Who had an accident with his car and need an expert opinion by recognized and certified experts, is also spot-on. They advice on all matters related to motor vehicle and take time for the individual needs of their customers – regardless of whether you have minor or major concern.

Important information: As of July, a general safety vest requirement in Germany. Only motorcycles and scooters are exempt from this requirement. The safety vest must the new Euro-standard “EN ISO 20471” meet and have reflective strips.

Let motorists z. B. performs their main investigation o. Ä. In May or June at the “GTÜ automotive testing”, they get paid a high visibility vest. The GTÜ security experts advise not to wait until the mandatory date, but to get up quickly for him and his rider safety vests.

 

The safety vest is not harassment. If a breakdown or accident the shining piece of fabric increases its own security enormously. Who wears a safety vest, is five times perceived earlier, the security experts GTÜ. Especially when setting up the warning triangle, when changing tires or on the way is no luminous vest a significantly higher risk of being overlooked – especially in the dark.

Who on the highway or country road has broken down, should create the safety reflective vest before leaving the car. The GTÜ advises better stow the West under the driver’s seat, in the bins of the doors or in the glove compartment.

Insights into the new brewery with wearing a reflective vest

The new Pauline brewery in Longwise is still a large construction site, but the heart of the plant is already being brewed. And before the first brew is ready, Pauline plans an extension.

 

The powerful, silvery stainless steel tanks are still empty, but in the building next door the first mash pans are already warming up, and the diagrams and measured values light up on the computer screens. “Last week we put our new brew house into operation,” reports Pauline spokeswoman Birgit in reflective vest. The first batch Pauline from Longwise, the first Christian and his coworkers now brew is to be filled ceremoniously on 15 September. However, it will not come into the trade, but will be given away to guests and business partners.

 

Larger production volumes would not be manageable anyway: Everywhere craftsmen still work in warning safety vests: on the valve matrix, the pipe work in which the beer is to flow from the pressure tanks to the filling plants, as well as in the 28,000- And empties logistics. Here the straightforward forklift trucks are programmed, which are fully automatic boxes, bottles, bottle caps and labels to the exact second and pick up. Outside the area, construction machines instead of beer pots are still running on untapped surfaces.

 

But that will change quickly. Train to train, brewery for brewery, production is to be relocated from Au to Longwise in the next months. In the middle of 2016, according to Zachery, the brewery is to run completely at the new location.

Pauline needs the capacity of the new brewery urgently

 

The time is right, because the capacity of the new, ultra-modern brewery is urgently needed. The shops run well. It is so good that Pauline CEO Andreas Steinhart uses an extension option, which he secured with a notarized contract already before the foundation stone last year: A well four hectare property, which in the southeast adjoins the operational area.

 

The space requirement has to do with a Bavarian peculiarity, as brewery speaker Birgit Zachery explains: “In Bavaria, it is particularly widespread that the breweries still supply the restaurants themselves.” Pauline and his subsidiary Interring: The Company are doing what other wholesalers do 117 employees assemble the containers delivered by the brewery and distribute them to the restaurants with a fleet of 58 trucks. Once this was done, currently the handling center is in Graveling. But there the rental agreement runs out, as Zachery reports. Therefore Interring is now to get a new home right next to the brewery. A logical step, as Zachery says. Instead of trucking and transporting beer trucks and containers from the brewery to Interring as before, they were able to load interring there and bring them back into the city, Interring could now be loaded directly from the production site.

 

In addition to the new Interring branch, Pauline plans to build a high-rack warehouse on the site: 7000 square meters, up to 30 meters high, two meters higher than the highest building sections of the brewery. When this camp is built, is still open. But what’s going to happen is: Beer, in all the vessels and containers that Pauline has in the program, as Zachery explains.

 

The keyword “traffic”, however, the alarm bells shriek in the district committee. “It is not yet clear how much of our roads are burdened by the brewery,” says Friedrich. It was only when the brewery was in operation and the first experiences were available that it was possible to make a meaningful decision on enlargement. The district committee is in principle in agreement with the plans, but wants to see the real figures of traffic “from the city administration,” said BA member Schrader (CSU). Already, the building structure with reflective material of the brewery represents a widely visible and prominent point at the motorway crossroads, says the BA. The logistics warehouse is ultimately a supplement. However, towards the committee wants lush greenery. “It should also be examined that the new high-rack warehouse will not be higher than the brewery,” says Schrader.

Grettenberger kindergarten receives safety vests

“Who of you knows what you need something?” Asks kindergarten director Walberg Vollmer, is holding up a reflective safety vest. “This one is seen by motorists better,” calls the five-year Jacob.

 

So as other boys and girls from kindergarten of the windmill village, they are easily recognizable in the future on the road. They received 50 safety vests, sponsored by Active per Streamer and Stahlberg.

 

This company donation Doris Glen has “seen let yourself” on Tuesday their private initiative continues. Together with Karl-Heinz Stahlberg, co-owner of the sponsor, they handed over the gift. 700 children in 13 kindergartens and neighboring communities have already been equipped with it as part of the action, explained Glen. Similar initiatives of trade associations had brought the idea of “something to do here as a meaningful thing for kindergartners”.

 

Elsewhere it was standard practice for a long time that children wore those vests with reflective tape. “I’m trying to spread the here,” said Glen. Anyone who wants to support their action, for instance, could fill the donation boxes that stood in petrol stations and shops. “This is an investment in the safety of children, which helps to avoid accidents,” says the initiator.

 

“This is a project that we support,” says Stahlberg. The issue of mobility and children has the company “on the screen”. As a father of five children there is also a personal connection for him.

 

“I think it’s a great thing that fits perfectly into the season,” says Vollmer. You darkened a room lit with a flashlight to the west and clarified the children so vividly the reflective effect of the strip. The reflective vests are to be equipped by their words with the logo of the municipal nursery and the name of his young visitors.

Traffic safety Education: Tournament for the pennant

1,200 children from the city of Regensburg made the Cycling license with wearing safety reflective vest. Now it was about the pennant honor.

 

1200 pupils the city of Regensburg was formed in the two youth traffic schools by the traffic police educators. After passing the test, they received the “bicycle license”. The best children qualified for the honor pennant tournament for the students of Regensburg schools.

 

In the school year 2015/2016 led traffic educator of PI Regensburg Nord, Patricia Apostolicism, Herald Rod, Hans Winze and Josef and the PI Regensburg Suds, Simone Kolb and Franz Schmaltz, at around 1200 students the bike training in the two youth traffic schools.

 

The best participants who completed their theoretical and practical test very well received as a special award the coveted among children honor pennants (can be visibly placed at the wheel) and qualified in order to participate in honor pennant Tournament 2016. The tournament itself is a community event of Road Patrol and police. Overall it is part of 160 students. The main prize for the winner there was a bike that was donated by the Jepson-car group. For the runners there were prizes, donated by Staler.

 

“The children have now acquired the tools to cover their school by bicycle can,” said the head of the police inspection Regensburg Suds, Chief Superintendent Thomas Stonier. He also appealed to the adult cyclists: “Be the children an example, stick to the traffic rules and wear a helmet.” On the course, the children had to face, could only be driven with safety vest and helmet. Under the watchful eyes of the police, which was hidden from no fault of the participants, all straining to very? The winner was John Gospel from primary school (GS) Burgeoning. Hot on the heels, relationship wise spoke, he was the runner-up.

 

The winner of the challenge cup for the best school was the GS Bishop Manfred Muller-school. At the award ceremony were beside Mayor Joachim Walberg’s, (from the city of Regensburg youth traffic school were asked 20 new bikes available) attending Theresa Jepson from the car group Jepson. The blessing of the bikes took before Prelate Peter. Superintendent Jorgen Dowell pointed out that the children should wear reflective safety vests by reflective fabric on the road.

Police in safety vest checks in Frankfurt

The Frankfurt city police in reflective vest control in the next two weeks motorists and cyclists. Now in the fall the risk of accidents increases.

 

Barr, that’s cold outside, and it’s still dark so early. This fall!

For the start of school on Monday cyclists are not only caught from the weather is cold, but possibly also by the city police. The men and women in blue uniforms are then at all possible intersections and corners, two weeks, especially where a lot is going on. Stop cyclists riding traffic unconstitutional.

 

Then there is a dialogue like this: “Stop, here you go without light! Do not you know how dangerous that is? “-” Uh, excuse me. “-” You should now pay 20 Euros! For this time I let it in the warning. But here, these shortcomings card I give you with that let the bike shop where you stamp to buy a candle and then show it in front at the city police, right? “-” Yeah, well, okay. Thank you. Bye.”

 

Tempo measurements Schools

The sun says goodbye currently evening about 18 o’clock. All, really all need, is careful in the dark winter months not to get hurt.

Because in dusk and dawn the risk of accidents increases in the street by three times when rain and snow even to come tenfold, knows Rainer Michaels, head of the traffic safety of the municipal police. By contrast, there was only one way visibility. Who wears bright clothes with reflective tape or things that reflect who its illumination that falls on? “Let’s see you,” is the road safety campaign of the municipal police.

 

In addition, the city police measure speed on school routes and in front of schools. For two weeks, 70 blocks are controlled starting Monday. “This aims to raise awareness that students are traveling,” says Michaels.

 

Accidents happen not only when it is raging. People in the dark are hard to see. A black jacket, for example, is only 25 meters visible. Drivers can react in time then barely. From 40 meters bright clothes is noticeable, but even this distance travels a vehicle in a few seconds. 150 meters radiate reflective clothing, vests and light strips for leg. Such snap bands with the slogan “Let’s see you” spread the municipal police in the coming weeks.

 

That alone is not enough to be visible, a bike needs, according to Road Traffic Licensing Regulations not only front and rear light, but also cats eyes in the spokes (yellow), cat’s eyes on the frame (front white, red at the rear) , Furthermore, reflectors (yellow) to the pedals and well functioning brakes.

 

This is not only valid for bicycles. “Bright sounding bell” highway legislation also needs carriage.

Children in safety vest give motorists memoranda

Dear car driver, at the point where you stop at 30 km / h just in front of me, when I suddenly run onto the road, you have not braked at 50 km / h yet and you are driving around – sure. Handbook with this text handed over 3500 primary schoolchildren and nursery children in safety vest to the drivers of the so linger road traffic on Friday morning.

 

A total of 20 primary schools and 37 day-care centers participated in the “See me?” Between 7.45 and 8.15 they pointed out the situation of children on the road. The posters “Down from the Gas” were also executed.

 

Teachers, parents and police officers supported the action

The 240 children of the elementary school were also up early on Friday. At the crossroads, they had positioned themselves together with teachers, parents and police officers. In the red phases at the traffic lights, they talked to the drivers, handed over their notes – and experienced a lot of understanding. “The drivers were all very nice and thanked the note and the information,” said Anita (9) from class 4a. She herself lives and in the morning she has two crossroads on the way to the school. “But I always take good care,” emphasized the fourth-grader.

 

The school has been taking part in the action at the beginning of the dark season for years. “The older people already know it and are therefore well informed,” Ann, speaker, emphasized. But all children were very committed and disciplined. “We are also very pleased that many parents are supporting the campaign again,” said Headmaster Katharina Hoffmann. The primary schoolchildren were, of course, equipped with bright warning reflective vest from the ADAC, which the school distributed to the first years each year.

 

Katrina, police transport officer, accompanied the action in the city center. “It is good that we are doing here in Solingen, unlike in other cities, the action concentrated in one morning. This is how no driver can get on the road to work on the subject. ”

Basically, the respondents were very understanding. “When children are involved, the reactions are usually always positive,” says Gyrostat from experience. Ernst, who had been traveling with his transporter early on Friday, also expressed his thanks for the handout. “I think the action is great. But I am sensitized anyway, because in my family all the educators are. ”

 

“Light clothing is the most important thing to look at children in the dark,” explained Katrina, and regretted that reflectors are still partly found on children’s reflective jackets, but mostly not on clothing for adults. In other cases, adults in road traffic are often a bad example for the children. “But after actions like this, the children can then explain to their parents how they have to behave properly in road traffic.”

Although the days in the near future must always shorter and wetter, completely dismount the bicycle adults and children still do not. Provided one is well prepared. “It is important that the cyclists are recognizable without wearing safety vest,” explains Brigitte, senior manager at Garden art-Bikes.

 

Wear Bright clothes

This can also Manuel agree, he is consultant at the two-wheeler experts Fredric. “In the fall and winter it is possible do not wear black or dark clothes,” advises Czech. Beyond the legal lighting regulations on the wheel of time, there is a wide range of equipment. From safety vests, jackets bright, reflective pants belts or helmets with already built-in taillight.

Most new wheels also already have reflective strips on the tire walls. And who goes to work every day, for example, for a suitable large area reflective pannier. For frequent travelers tire could be worth with spikes in the winter also.

 

Maintain bike

Also do not forget: The care of the wheel. “Salt on the roads is the killer,” says Brigitte. Therefore, you should clean the wheel with a damp cloth and then maintain with special agents. Above all, the derailleur moves the oil to a lot of dirty. “The old grease and dirt should run men ago before it gives new” advises Czech.

 

Before winter, the wheel should undergo an inspection. Be checked light, braking and wear parts. Also should be controlled tires.

For the cold season there are winter tires for the bike. These are more expensive than the standard tire models to buy. Alternatively, you may use coarse-profile tires, giving in autumn and winter more grip on the road.

 

For e-bikes, it is important to note the storage battery. Stand the wheel times a night out in the cold, do not hurt the explain Manuel. “But if it is really cold and the wheel a long time is out, then you should remove the battery and store them at room temperature. This is not negative for the battery and you do the bike something good, “says Czech in reflective vest.

 

Routes in autumn

And why in the fall should still rise on the bike? “Alone, because the autumn is so beautiful – with the leaf discoloration everything looks great,” says Rolf, press officer.

He recommends the route around the dam because the roads were tidy and no sand or gravel paths. The stretch is mostly lined with deciduous trees, which give additional protection from the weather. From Thule we head August doff, at Oldenburg and East Friesland Water Association (OOWV) over and direction Derogate. “Because you have a beautiful view over the dam,” said Strand.

Accident jam – no warning vest is a bad idea

Since July the safety vest duty has also been valid in Germany. But what does that actually mean? Can you buy any vest? Where in the car does it have to lie? What penalties are threatened if you do not have them?

 

Since July 1, 2014, every driver must have a warning vest. If you have to walk around the highway or highway after an accident or a breakdown – and of course you should always retreat behind the guard rail and wait for the road service – this increases the likelihood of not being over shooter by the next bum or car. The Auto- und Raise club Deutschland (ARCD) answers on its website the most important questions about the warning vest.

 

For whom is the obligation to warn?

For all cars, trucks and buses registered in Germany. Except for this are motorcycles. So far, the regulation has already existed for drivers of commercial vehicles.

 

What is mandatory?

A warning vest must be carried in each of these vehicles, regardless of the number of occupants. “In Germany, however, there is no compulsory wear, but the ARCD recommends that a warning vest be placed in the car for all possible occupants (see number of seats), and that these should be set up before disembarking”. In this way one increases one’s own safety and is also prepared for all regulations abroad.

“The warning vest has to comply with the EN 471 or EN ISO 20471: 2013. This is indicated by the warning sign on the washing machine, which is made of reflective warning lights in yellow, orange and rot orange with two revolving, five-centimeter wide reflective strips “Said the ARCD.

 

Where do you place warning vests in the car?

The vest should be stowed in the car in any case – in the vehicle interior, eg in the glove compartment or in the side compartments. At the bottom of the trunk, the vest does not need much in an emergency. “Because it fades because of sunshine, you should keep it in a dark place,” the automobile club recommends.

 

What punishment threatens?

If you do not carry a warning vest in Germany and you are inspected, warning money of 15 Euro is due.

 

What do you have to consider while traveling abroad?

Abroad, the most varied regulations, such as driving or wearing, Warning vests only apply to the driver or to all inmates. Partially threatens a juicy fine. “If you carry a warning reflective vest for every possible occupant and if you pull them in before an emergency, you are definitely on the safe side,” says the ARCD.
