Every year, for cyclists and pedestrians, the change in the winter time is synonymous with an increase in accidents related to the decrease in brightness, especially without any reflective accessories. The France Bleu network launches the operation “Bien vu ensemble”.
The operation “Well seen together” is to find this Friday, October 27 from 9am in “Life in Blue” with the general agents of insurance. All day with France Bleu Pays de Savoy, listeners will win their safety kits. This safety kit includes a yellow safety vest with reflective stripes, a yellow backpack with reflective stripes, a reflective bracelet and adhesives to stick on bicycle frames.
This operation takes as an anchor, the transition to winter time, synonymous with a significant increase in the number of victims of traffic accidents and particularly among the most vulnerable, pedestrians and cyclists.
Indeed, the night falling an hour earlier, pedestrians and cyclists are less visible because of this lack of brightness without reflective vest.
