Reflect the vest for the new traffic rules

As early as July, police are beginning to scrutinizing and fining. There are also tightened rules for entering the emission zones of some German cities. Three and a half years after the obligation to carry a reflective vest in the Czech Republic began to apply; the same regulation will enter into force in Germany. From 1 July, when it begins to pay, the police are going to start scrutinizing and collecting fines.

 

In addition, the entry-level rules of certain German cities are tightened. Many of them will no longer be able to drive cars with red or yellow stickers – those that do not meet at least the Euro 4 emission standard. Already in May the regulation, increasing the penalty for entry into the zone without the appropriate sticker began to apply. Instead of the previous 40 Euros, a double fine is now levied.

 

Absence of the safety vest comes to 15 Euros

From the inclusion of a reflective vest to the mandatory car equipment, road safety experts promise to improve the safety of drivers who have to get out of a car in the event of an accident – motorists in the surrounding vehicles will be better off seeing them. The regulations do not specify whether the reflective vest should be orange, yellow or green. Unlike Austria, German regulations will not require a vest for every car passenger – just one on the vehicle. If a driver does not have a reflective vest in the car, a roadside penalty of 15 Euros (410 crowns) is threatened by roadside inspection. In such a case, however, it is unlikely that he will be entitled to indemnity from the insurance company if the passing car is injured.

 

Higher fines since May

Since May 1, he has also tightened the point system for traffic offenses while driving, and some fines have changed. Half of the phone calls for hands-free driving, driving without dimming lights, turning in the tunnel, or parking in a tiny spot that can block traffic. For these offenses, the police in reflective uniform may choose from May 60 Euros (1650 crowns). The use of a child seat is subject to a fine of 60 Euros instead of the previous 40 Euros. There are only eight points in the point system. However, the rate for individual misdemeanors is half as much as previously.

 

 

The reflective vest use for the visualization theme

After the presentation of the six schools that will participate in the final phase of the second school competition “In the voice of children”, last Tuesday in the communal building, NORTE in reflective uniform spoke with the Director General of Transit and Transportation of the Municipality of Rivera.

 

Mauricio referred to the school safe transit contest. He expressed that the contest “is a great success”, because the Department of Rivera is the only country level with this modality, where the Intendance and the Departmental Inspection of Primary act together.

 

“The objective is to generate culture in transit, transfer it to the population, since it is the fundamental tool to lower the accident rate. The idea is to show what is being done from Rivera to the world, “explained the head.

Gonzalez emphasized, “There are already more than 36,000 views in a week. This will serve as an example for the whole population and for the world, being a message of the children, who teach us how to behave in transit.”

 

Referring to the accident figures in the Department of Rivera, he said that this occurs more with motorcycles and mopeds. “In our car park there are more than one hundred thousand vehicles, between the two cities, and sixty thousand motorcycles circulate. For being more dangerous, we are working on the use of the reflective vest, for the visualization theme, “he explained.

 

The Director of Traffic and Transportation noted that “the driver must slow down, respect traffic signals, not use the cell phone”, although he recalled that “there is a correct signaling from the Transit Division, which in two years has been applied a lot and it has the backing of the Departmental Intending. The idea is to continue advancing and counting on the support of the public.”

 

Returning to the theme of the school competition “In the voice of children”, said that the contest “is one more stage of the work of Road Education in schools. Officials go to schools to educate children on road safety, and work with teachers, principals and later in the year, the contest takes place. ”

In Dilbert Cholula’s photographic shot, Education officials give a talk about traffic in the initial education school “Green Land School”.

Children will be safer with lighting

City guards in safety vest want to improve the safety of children on the road. They started the glare deal. During meetings with children the guards talk about safety rules and explain to them what dangers lay ahead.

 

– Some of the schools are located in villages, especially there can be dangerous situations, says Andre, city commandant. – This is to improve safety. We conduct mainly in primary school. City guards in reflective uniform also meet with preschoolers.

 

All kindergartens from the municipality have also received reflective vests for the toddlers. “This will make the preschoolers’ walks more secure,” adds Korma.

“Reflections Day” – a pedestrian lane giving pedestrian glare

On January 25, 2017, for the first time in the whole country, including in the Lubes County, the “Reflections Day” was held for the first time. Police officers from the Road Traffic Command of the Lumbar Police Headquarters gave pedestrians and bicyclists reflective and reflective vest.

 

The Lumbar county road traffic preventive measures have been implemented to improve the safety of pedestrians. The officers gave unprotected road traffic to the reflexes and the bikers were provided with reflective vests. By law, any pedestrian who moves in the dusk on the road outside the built-up area is obliged to use reflective elements. Keep in mind that in the confrontation with the vehicle, the walker is always in a lost position. The bumper, the car mask and the airbag are not protected by it.

 

Hikers make a particularly vulnerable group of road users in the winter. There are always illuminated roads, lack of designated places for safe pedestrians on the road (especially outside built-up areas), and improper use of roads by pedestrians themselves, causing many accidents.

 

We appeal to pedestrians to take care of their safety during these dangerous months. Traffic policemen in reflective uniform will pay particular attention to the behavior of drivers in relation to pedestrians, but they will also watch closely whether the pedestrians do not break the rules of traffic.

Police respond the plan for city safety

Today, the guest of the online interview of the Boleslaw was Chief of the Police of the Republic of Poland, who wear a reflective uniform. The readers asked him not only why he was interested in the position, but also about what changes in the city he is planning.

 

How do you like the position of Chief of the City Police? As far as I know, you worked as a line guard before, so that’s probably a big difference…

The work I’m doing now is very interesting, but it’s also challenging. Yesterday before I was elected to the City Police Chief and subsequently appointed by the city council, I worked for seventeen years as a line guard. The difference in both positions is that I have a greater responsibility in this position. This means not only communication with citizens within the service, but also a lot of administrative activity (budget, services breakdowns, etc.) and communication with city management.

 

The city police in Munich Hardiest had never had a good reputation according to citizens. Is it true? And what have you done to improve it?

As in any other city, there will be people who will be dissatisfied with the work of the city police, but I think most of the people who can appreciate our work predominate. Therefore, to improve, we have done a few things. For example, security precautions for children and pensioners are taking place, we have set up a Facebook profile to allow police officers to communicate at any time, staffing has also been modernized, and overall we are trying to improve the view of the city police.

 

I heard you’ll get one more policeman and reflective vest, so you should be nine if I’m wrong. Is this the optimal number for you or would you need the officers even more? Yes, at the present time, a tender for the position of a police officer is announced. The number of officers should therefore increase to nine. In order for the city police to manage what is required and what they want to do, the optimal number of officers would be at least twelve. The main reason for the increase in the number of police officers is that we want to keep the traffic uninterrupted; another reason is the large cadastral territory and the ever-increasing traffic in the city. It is also necessary to devote more time to preventive action.

 

Recently, a group of people we are afraid of at the train station at the train station. In the summer, we always went out for a walk with the kids, but now we prefer to go elsewhere. Please make this site safe again.

The officers devote themselves equally to all the parks in the city. Their checks are carried out at regular intervals. Currently we do not see this site as dangerous, but it is possible that you could see this site as dangerous beforehand due to the occurrence of so-called problem people, but we have succeeded in eliminating this site from our site.

 

Why did you apply for a new Chief of Police at the Tender? There is a lot of talk about the fact that the new composition of the town hall has great demands on the officers, and that’s why your predecessor ended.

It is true that the current management of the city places great demands on me and the officers, but I am not competent to express myself to my predecessor. I have enrolled in the selection facility to improve the overall view of our city police.

 

Are you getting in the new position in the field, or are you shut down in the office and you’re doing clerical work, or maybe in the service you jump off colleagues when they cannot?

It is true that the new position requires me to devote more attention to administrative work, but I still try to work in the field. And since the number of officers is low, I normally have to do the work of a line guard.

We are currently preparing a contract for the provision of radar for speed measurement and we will try to start measuring the speed of the vehicles as soon as possible.

 

How often do you check the city area? Sometimes I see that if you arrive, you just slow down and you will not get out of the car. I understand that the cadastral territory you are in charge of is vast and you cannot be everywhere, but it does not avoid criminal activities in the villages.

Compared to the previous period, the police officers started to drive more often to suburban areas, three times a week. Control is preventive if the officers do not record offense, so they check this area only from the vehicle, but sometimes these areas are also walking

 

I heard you got new uniforms. What’s different and why the original ones were not enough? What did you do with the old ones?

Yes, we have new uniforms. It varies with its functionality, material and appearance. The policeman feels more comfortable in this uniform; the new uniform is multifunctional and meets all the requirements that a police officer can spend twelve hours in this facility. Old uniforms did not fulfill their functionality, parts of equipment such as jackets and shoes are still being used. Shirts and trousers, neckties were removed.

 

It is almost entirely the rule that new leadership always introduces changes. Will you also change things or have you changed? What can we look forward to in the city?

Some changes have been made, they are put into practice. In the future, we are going to measure vehicle speed, carry out controls on alcohol pouring for juveniles, we will also be giving out reflective tapes, and we are going to make more frequent playground controls.

 

 

Highway is dangerous even with safety vest

A woman has been drinking too much and not stops to pee, but in the place and in the most dangerous way. A journalist films the scene and saves lives. Please do not do this dangerous because the highway is dangerous even you wear a safety vest.

 

A young man standing in the middle of the roadway to carry out a physiological need, on the highway, as many motorists shamelessly that would not last until the next service area. The woman is visibly disoriented for alcohol he drank and gets in line behind each other imprudent gestures that might cost her life. Vistas recovery by a reporter on the side of the road crossing on foot to discuss with the cameraman, and then back in the car with shocking ease: a tragicomic scene that is unbelievable for the possible consequences escaped.

 

MADNESS ONE BEHIND THE OTHER

The stage is I-15, a busy highway near San Diego and the first lady is a young man with high heels and pants – perhaps – too tight at the waist. An ABC-10 News TV team realizes the machine stops and the woman engaged in “activities” and the films, not for voyeurism but for the danger of the situation. The woman, probably while impaired by the alcohol, he realizes the shooting and crossing the busy thoroughfare to discuss with the operators. Shortly after he moves away, back to his car (always walking through the street) and starts fiddling with his cell phone, keeping strictly off the four arrows. All the while the signaling passing motorists as they see the obstacle, but someone likely to end up in the wall to avoid the car of the unconscious woman in the video below.

 

SOBER AND ALWAYS FOLLOW THE RULES

Despite repeated calls by the cameraman, the woman continues unabated until a police in reflective uniform patrol leads in the nation (US) prisons. The main question is concerned, of course, the state of mental and physical alteration of the lady in question, but even if you are sober you must use extreme caution when walking on foot on fast roads. In a recent AUTO article he pointed out the dangers of walking on foot on country roads and highways; tragic cases which raised people appetite by a fault (see how to behave so as not to end up killed on the highway), lack of petrol or who had been involved in another accident, although there are examples of pedestrians “volunteers”, who then chosen to move on foot where it was not prudent to do so.

 

THE ROSARY OF OFFENSES

To the lady of San Diego it went well, in the sense that you saved the life even if you will be liable to a (hopefully) exemplary punishment. What would happen in Italy? The stationary vehicles without headlights or hazard warning lights must be from triangle or in another effective way; those who put it in work must wear the reflective vest. Since 2004, then, the jacket must be worn as soon as it comes down from the vehicle, even in the lay-bys failure implies perished two points and a fine of up to 168 Euros. Also the ‘ Art 158 would be called into question: in paragraph 4, it says that “During the stop and the stop the driver must take appropriate precautions designed to avoid accidents and prevent use of the vehicle without his consent.”L lists the conditions and limitations of traffic on motorways and country roads leading. At Comma 6 we read that in these streets circulation p is prohibited Edina and animals, except for the service areas and rest areas. In these areas the animals can circulate only when properly stored. Along the emergency lanes is allowed for pedestrians only to reach the points for distress calls. Art paragraph 15, indicates the only pedestrians allowed to move on the highway:” The staff on duty on motorways and their appurtenances is exempted in case of actual service needs and the adoption of appropriate safeguards, the observance of the traffic prohibition for pedestrians. “In summary, behave like the woman in the video is very dangerous and, if it leads to home the skin, breaking several rules of the Highway Code (the list may not be exhaustive): it’s worth it?

Police wear new reflective uniform from today

All 3,800 agents in eastern Netherlands today get their new reflective uniform.

According to police fits uniformly better in the varied work of the police than the more formal, current uniform. Police in Limburg, The Hague, Rotterdam, Zeeland and Brabant have the new kit.

 

Helpful and accessible

The formal uniform with blue and white gives way to a modern suit in blue with striking bright yellow stripes. It consists of a worker, a polo shirt, a jacket, boots, a cap and a safety vest. According to the organization radiates that the agents are helpful and accessible, but also sturdy and tough.

 

Agents involved in the design and it is presented to citizens in 1500. The new uniform made by reflective fabric is provisionally intended only for officers who actually work on the street.

Visitors in safety vest visit the Maritime Museum

The Maritime Museum allows visitors in safety vest since two weeks working in the Dutch offshore sector up close. This happens in the interactive exhibition “Offshore Experience”. A million project, even the most expensive to the Maritime Museum (since 1873) ever launched, says museum assistant Judith Fraise. Not for nothing: “Worldwide, Dutch companies at the forefront of offshore technology, but the people on the street know that much.”

 

The exhibition should change this. “Also to show how large the importance of energy use is daily life for us all we eventually use energy, such as when cooking, driving and charging our phones. In addition, there is the future change very much: the offshore sector is in a transition from fossil fuels to CO2-neutral energy. ”

 

Wailing wind

After entering a movie about disaster drills and safety of visitors – with helmet and safety reflective vest – a “drilling platform” surrounded by a huge movie projection wall which gives them a view of 360 degrees on the sea. Waves roll in and out, the wind brushes heard and felt over the heads of small and larger distance you see sailing ships. Periodically there protrudes a storm. Then the wind howls and the waves grow.

 

For filming the sky makers climbed the lighthouse of Namaland. The surging waves eyes lifelike. Fraise: “A visitor, who worked on an oil rig, told me that he recognized the reality in our simulation.”

On the platform, visitors can start using commands such as maneuvering a ship in severe storm, to determine the proper location of a wind farm, running gas drilling and allowing countries a rattling approaching helicopter. The better you perform the task, the more points you earn.

 

Show in the middle of the room impressive scale models (scale 1: 100) of ships from the offshore sector the seas worldwide. The showpiece is a huge model of the largest ship in the world, the brand new “pioneering spirit”. Owner is the Swiss-Dutch offshore company Allseeds, with about 2500 employees. The super catamaran, from August to now, all rigs can sail to its destination or scrapping copies of their pedestal and bring lights.

 

Deep Seabed

With an elevator dropping museum visitors then off. When getting them imagine them 300 meters below sea level, far below the drilling platform. Further floating jellyfish and swimming fish. A diver focuses squatted engaged in welding. Fraise, muted: “divers can still operate at this depth. But look, if you walk you see the situation further on a seabed of 3000 meters depth. “The presence of people can no longer be there. Monitored and controlled via robots. A true copy of such operated underwater vehicle remotely hovers below the ceiling. The simulated deep seabed you see such “ROV” (remotely operated underwater vehicle) delving around swimming above the gas installations. Besides getting pipelines on the bed carefully a load of bricks plunged over – protection.

 

The sea and deep seabed simulation is set up according to the “Pepper’s Ghost” principle: using mirrors creates a lifelike illusion of the marine world to the eye of the visitor, as if you can walk right through.

 

Using the exhibition -one of the eight long-term exhibitions in the building- directs the museum, along with the many offshore companies that contributed to it, moreover, emphatically also look at the youth. Fraise in reflective uniform: “We hope to interest schoolchildren for a technical study and employment in the maritime sector.”
