The Main State Traffic Police Department has urged pedestrians to follow safety rules when travelling with young children.
The agency provided the information to “Operative Information Center-OMM”, Operative Information Center-OMM reports.
An analysis of road traffic accidents involving pedestrians shows that most such crashes occur near pedestrian crossings or underground and overground pedestrian walkways, particularly during hours of darkness, the department said:
“For this reason, the Main State Traffic Police Department is once again appealing to pedestrians to be careful when crossing roads, avoid using phones, headphones and similar devices, not linger at pedestrian crossings, cross only at designated locations and obey traffic lights. It urges them to follow safety rules without exception, particularly when travelling with young children.”
