Always look around carefully; making sure that the road does not appear in any vehicle, and normal cross the road does not end in serious injury or even death. For your own safety, and even the protection of your life, every pedestrian should be mandatory to equip the reflective element, to become more visible to other road users. Reflective vests, flashlights, umbrellas, reflectors on the hand, make a pedestrian will be visible to the driver not from a distance of 20-30 meters, but from a distance of up to 150 meters. This can ensure that the driver has time to slow down and there will be no deductions.
