Police in reflective vest on the county’s roads

Periodically some time for traffic police in safety vest carry out actions that aim to eliminate the traffic person sitting down behind the wheel at double the gas.

 

On Monday early morning on the road – Stanomino launched another such action. Fortunately, not one is arrested in a state of intoxication. And also some people will wear reflective clothing on the road because the poor visibility of early morning with heavy fog.

 

In addition, traffic police officers equipped the person walking in reflective vests instructing about having to wear reflective elements outside built-up areas with poor visibility.

Safety vest for the cycling enthusiasts

utumn is obviously a time when we leave their bikes in garages. It remains; however, a group of enthusiasts who gravitate continue their kilometers with wearing safety clothing. You can join them! Just remember a few things.

The truth is that in our climate autumn cyclists does not spoil and often surprises with morning frost, rain and wind aura. For all these disadvantages should still make later rising sun and before the gathering dusk. In short – the cyclist fall is not easy.

 

The first and most important rule – Be seen! Cyclist traveling on the road must be visible to the driver. Not only dark, but in the day. Keep in mind that in the autumn air transparency is much smaller. Manufacturers of sports clothes have a wide color palette. It is worth investing in special armbands, reflective vests or other reflective elements. In addition, shortly after nightfall, remember to ignite lights: white front and red rear. The rear light is best to put on a backpack on his jacket or helmet. For your safety, you must shine like a Christmas tree!

Beware of road surface marking on the road, painted white or yellow paint, especially on the lanes and pedestrian crossings. This is what “white” on the road can be very slippery, especially after rains.

 

Thirdly, and no less significant than the above – consistently forcing drivers to comply with an order to circumvent wheelers at a distance of not less than one meter. Yes, deliberately and with premeditation I took the word “forcing”. Horse “close as possible to the right edge of the road” does not mean running next to the curb. You have to take an amendment to the opening doors of parked cars, potholes and other obstacles. Hooking pedal curb can lead to overturning the rider and dangerous accident. Safe distance is about 1 meter from the curb – and beyond. Then biker has more room for maneuver if you notice any obstacle. It will be able to bypass the right rather than the left. I know from experience that this is not always possible, but helps a lot riding on at least half a meter from the curb, not next to him. If the way that you move is not even enough space to perform a dangerous maneuver safely try not to make sudden maneuvers, trying to avoid an obstacle. Remember that such a sudden “dodge” for moving the driver of the car you can be quite a surprise if in this moment is going to overtake you.

 

Security is one of the elements on which it is worth paying attention to preparing for the fall on a bicycle. However, we must remember to take care of appropriate clothing. What a pleasure to drive if we are cold and all have wet autumn rain?

 

The basic principle is to not allow extracting excessive amounts of moisture (sweat) by our body. Otherwise, simple cotton clothing will sweat and wet will stick to our body. That is why it is worth to reach for clothing thermo active. Thermal clothing provides better ventilation, easier to keep it constant body temperature. The main task of the service is thermo discharge of sweat from the skin surface. This is essential for our comfort. By moisture cools the body much faster than in dry conditions.

 

You should also keep in mind the volatility of the autumn weather. And this rain is the biggest bane of the rider. It is necessary here adequate security of your wardrobe. Manufacturers of sportswear offer a wide variety of jackets, trousers or raincoats. It is with you all the time to have a coat or jacket, which at any time can be removed from the bag or backpack. Such a protective jacket certainly is not a great burden for our luggage. A good solution is the reflective jacket tourist soft-shell or models with detachable fleece.

If you plan to ride well in the winter, you can think about the gloves of the membrane layer. As quickly we reach for the scarf and hat.

Police in safety vest let people be considerate on the road

The turn of November and December is a dangerous time for all road users. Changing auras forces the techniques of driving. Unfortunately, many drivers forget about it. The police in safety vest call for caution and common sense. Inappropriate speed for road conditions may be the cause of the tragedy.

 

Prevailing in our country today weather makes road conditions are getting very volatile, more treacherous and dangerous to both vehicular and pedestrian. Therefore, the traffic police are appealing to all, both for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians, with particular care and consideration.

 

Many drivers, it seems that the roadway is black and dry. Meanwhile, it may already be przymrożona, and therefore slippery, and in such situations, the wheels lose grip easily. Let us remember that in many places the road surface combined with rain, and often have the snow, increases the braking distance of the vehicle, in extreme cases, control may slip and you do not control the car. Overtaking in such conditions, overtaking, cornering can be very dangerous. Drivers should wear reflective clothing and remember to navigate the road with lights and obey the speed limits, and when the weather conditions are worse, to slow down the principle that the slower means safer. We call for it to not charge, think, and anticipate threats.

 

Especially need to be careful in depressions, on slopes, close to forests and water reservoirs – roadway there may be particularly slippery. Take extreme caution in the vicinity of pedestrian crossings. Also be careful when approaching them. When a pedestrian enters the passage control car cannot slow down.

 

A special appeal is also addressed to pedestrians not to enter directly in front of an oncoming vehicle. Even at a pedestrian crossing, make sure that the control has time to slow down. Of course, this pedestrian has priority on the passage, but here the principle of trust as the most applicable.

 

Each pedestrian and cyclist should also be aware of their safety and ensure that, in order to be visible. Vest, pendant, bracelet, or even a simple flashlight will make moving around the dimly lit road will be more visible to oncoming drivers. Reminder: from 31 August 2014. Every pedestrian who is moving after dark on the road outside the built-up area must be placed in a reflection visible to managers. It is true that traffic regulations do not impose an obligation to use reflective vests and reflective elements in the built-up area, but to a large extent they improve visibility. They give drivers valuable time to make a proper response – often saving life and health.

 

This period is also dangerous for motorcycles managers, who increasingly use their machines to late autumn, and even throughout the year. Adverse weather conditions affect the reduction of tire grip to asphalt and even seemingly harmless fall when you try hard braking can be fatal.

 

Let us remember – permitted speed during heavy rain or snow, or when frost does not always mean safe speed!

You should also be aware of the right and a legitimate use of the fog lights and daytime running lights (art. 51 of the Act “Law on Road Traffic”).

 

An additional difficulty in this period (not only for drivers) is often worse mood. A bad mood can affect the reaction speed and concentration, which should also remember moving on the roads.

Locating device and safety vest for dog

His dog always and everywhere will find and protect him from attacks of wild animals – that was the desire of Bjorn. For several years now, the dog handler finding equipment and safety vest for dogs.

 

Bjorn had always looking for his dogs after the hunt. Only two years ago drew, where he also has his hunting ground.

Previously ran the trained electrician up to 200 kilometers to its former place of residence in Essen. “We had to see that we, the dogs will find quickly,” says Cohen.

Out of necessity, the navigation device for dogs originated. The equipment purchased Cohen; the software has the 47-year-old self-improvement developed.

 

Locating in real time

All dog owners need to regain their four-legged, the locating device and a mobile phone. “The Navi is secured in the collar. With one app you can be on the phone to display the last location of the dog, “says Cohen. But that’s not all: In real-time holders can watch the distance that puts her dog – and so easy to find him. The range is unlimited, he could locate dogs in Finland or Austria, says Cohen.

 

As in a hunting accident one of his dogs died because a boar had hit him on the carotid artery, Cohen were the old armor no longer safe enough and he developed his own.

“Our reflective vests are firmly connected from stab-resistant material and with the neck protection.” So could prevent boar fall on the dog’s neck.

 

Handwork

 

They are manufactured to order west, they are made to measure and even sewn. About ten to 15 pieces finished Cohen and his staff every day during the hunting season from September to January. “In the other months it is quieter.” The entire West is adjustable and especially easy with about 200 to 300 grams.

 

Thus, the dogs are to see when it is dark, all jackets are sewn in reflective tape. One hundred percent protection against injuries admits it but even at its West does not, says Cohen. “The vital organs but are protected by our vest.”
