The move to winter time and the possible degradation of weather conditions in the autumn increase, in fact, the risk of road accidents.

Throughout this period, the police thus remain at a high level traffic controls operations – including unmarked – to punish dangerous behavior (alcohol, drugs, speeding, and failure to respect the rules of priority or distances safety, use of mobile devices …) and protect lives. It is the responsibility of everyone to travel safely during this weekend traditionally accident-prone.

Advice

Be vigilant with respect to other road users who are less visible at this time of the year cyclists, motorcycles and pedestrians on public roads must always be seen by motorists and wear reflective clothing. This rule is especially fitting for schoolchildren on the way to school

Reflective vest keeps you safer with the time change

The prefecture of Lot-et-Garonne calls for vigilance. Involved, the visibility of pedestrians by drivers as night falls faster in urban areas, wearing a safety vest can enhance visibility and make you safer.

 

Ne is past winter time. In the night from Saturday to Sunday, in fact, everyone could (not) sleep an hour longer. Furthermore it causes insomnia in some, this time change has not only positive aspects, as recalled by the Prefecture of Lot-et-Garonne.

 

Publicity

The number of pedestrian accidents increases by 40%, between 17 hours and 19 hours in the transition to winter time. Driver can’t see clearly when the pedestrians without wearing reflective vest. And state services confirmed that over the past five years, the number of injury accidents of pedestrians increased by 3% in November compared to October. Indeed, the decline of one hour has a significant impact on the hours of light: night falls earlier in the day, at the end of classes in particular.

 

The Lot-et-Garonne prefecture therefore presents a series of recommendations which the first is intended for pedestrians prefer bright clothing or assorted reflective strips.

Posted at the main entrance with its safety vest

“For a day reserved for saints, I find it incredibly alive cemetery!” There are Jokes a young woman with her arms. The same people who, since this weekend, almost all bloom on the graves of France, including those of the region. “I think this is the first year that I see so many people walking around with reflective material buckets, brushes, flowerpots, since last week … this morning, it does not stop! ”

 

Just steps from his office, posted at the main entrance with its bright yellow vest, watches the comings and goings of visitors. Holder of a day, a member of the association Canal (Assistance return to work) the rest of the time, “relieves people to arm a little too full of flowers,” or those “who have trouble walking.” “Oh no, that I refuse, it’s not my type!  “He laughs. It is that paradox or not, it reigns as an air of gaiety in the cemetery of Roubaix, on Tuesday morning. That joke, that short, that “chatting quietly“at the corner of a grave. November 1 is finally an opportunity for many families to honor their deceased relatives but also to be together.

 

A striking contrast

And then there are the chapels (over 500), impressive gray graves that still bear the names of the largest families who made his fortune in Roubaix industry in the years 1800 – 1900.

 

Here, cracks, broken tiles or even yard grills sometimes replace pomponettes as an ornament. The few people crossed in the affected paths turn out to be visitors, architecture lovers or just curious. But no issue is in sight. ”  Yet there remain but they are discreet when they wear the clothes with reflective tape come,” “last week, the Mulliez were there,” “most family members who are still alive no longer live in Roubaix, many even left France, “we says one between two graves. Strange contrast is between the first cross graves, flowers and colorful, and these, in certain charm but sadly neglected and gray … At the point of becoming the great forgotten of All Saints?

The gloves with reflective material certified compulsory from Sunday

Proposed by the Road Safety Committee (IRB) on 2 October 2015, the measure requiring mandatory gloves with reflective material certified on a motorized two-wheeled vehicle was validated and published in the Official Gazette on 19 September.

 

As a result, all users of motorcycles and scooters, pilots as passengers, must now be equipped with EPI-certified gloves in all circumstances. The measure will come into force on Sunday, November 20th. In other words, you have until Saturday to buy you a homologated pair if not yet the case.

 

As a reminder, any glove cannot be worn. The decree of 19 September 2016 specifies that the latter must be “in conformity with the regulations on personal protective equipment, like the safety vest“. They are recognizable by the CE marking specific to the practice of the motorcycle.

 

As of Sunday, any driver or passenger who does not respect this new regulation of the Highway Code will be subject to a third-class fine, a flat-rate fine of € 68 and a withdrawal of a point on the driver’s license.

 

In order to accompany this measure and to insist on the importance of adapted equipment, Road Safety launches a new prevention campaign. The latter reminds users of the need to protect their hands on a two-wheeler by using reflective accessory. This campaign will be broadcast in the print media and available on the web.

Bikers soon forced to wear a fluorescent reflective jacket

Would the myth the same if Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda had driven their Harley-Davidson rigged a fluorescent  reflective vest? “Easy Rider” clearly not part of the ideal Prime Minister Francois Fillon has announced the adoption of a number of measures against the increase in the number of road deaths, after an interministerial Committee for road safety (IRB).

 

Among them, the obligation for motorcyclists to wear retro reflective equipment, in other words one of those famous yellow vests that drivers must have in hand at all times in their vehicles.

 

Beyond the controversy over the real contribution of such a security decision, this announcement is a real blow to the followers of leather reflective jacket.

In case of failure, mandatory safety triangle?

Must we always report your vehicle stopped by the security triangle? It’s not an obligation.

Since 2008, all vehicles traveling on French territory are required to have at least a yellow reflective vest and a pre-warning triangle. To skip this equipment can be expensive: € 135 fine, according to Article R416-19 of the Highway Code.

When to use his triangle?

Must we always get his security triangle when you’re down? According to the Highway Code (Article R416-19), when a vehicle stopped on the road is a traffic hazard (…) the driver must provide advance warning of the obstacle by making use of its fire distress and an emergency warning triangle with reflective tape.

 

The obligation to put in place the triangle does not apply when this action constitutes a manifest endangering the life of the conductor (Decree of 30 September 2008). The vehicles on the hard shoulder and does not impinge on the floor are not subject to this requirement, either.

 

Reminder – emergency warning triangle must be placed on the floor at a distance of about 30 meters, or beyond if necessary, for it to be visible to drivers coming in the same lane. In addition, highway, remember to store behind the guardrail.

The mandatory safety kit in Europe too

If you travel abroad, note that in some European countries set the mandatory safety kit of accessories is not the same. For example, in our Spanish neighbors, each car must have 1 Reflective safety vest and 2 pre-warning triangles. Conversely, Austria, drivers must have two jackets and one triangle.
