As you know, February 20, applies to pedestrians obliged to wear under reduced visibility outside the village reflective vest or other reflective elements. Possibilities include various stickers or bracelets, clothing, life jackets, however, are most effective. And not just for the people.
Many people ignore the new regulation and thus risking a fine of up to CZK 2,000. Maybe they feel embarrassed to wear a reflective safety vest, which is understandable, but reflective tape no one really sees. Life, however, you can save. The obligation was introduced because of the fact that just last year, died on the roads 72 people who were not seen.
How expensive are reflective elements?
It’s a matter of a few bucks. Reflective vest for an adult costs about a hundred, for a child it’s still about a quarter less. Bag with reflective tape costs 60 crowns, reflective umbrella 300 CZK, reflective keychain 36 crowns, sew-on / iron-on tape about 20 crowns, reflective cap of 60 crowns. Excuses prices are therefore unnecessary.
The above mentioned prices are taken from the shop Altima.cz where we noticed the categories reflective vests and collars for dogs. Maybe it amaze you, not us. We’ve had similar pictures he had seen on Facebook and little explored. Dogs it vests in the end quite befits a dog’s life for family members is often as important as the human. It is also necessary to protect their pets.
Another risk group who are themselves not able to take care of herself on the road are children. The wearing of reflective elements need to be result since childhood. They contribute to making early as kindergarten. When children go for a walk, at least the first and the last couple holding hands child wears reflective vests with the picture. And please go for walks during the day! At night and in poor visibility without you baby reflective elements not venturing out at all. If nothing else, at least buy his school backpack vendors to heed safety and reflective elements of violence. It is sad to think about it that way, but the child’s life will never return. Neither life or your pet dog. Protect everyone.
