The City of Plodio writes to the cooperative “The Beech” inviting to raise awareness among migrants about the reflective clothing to be used to be more visible in the dark. But what looks like a gaffe, or almost involuntary joke man of black dress color that does not stand out in the dark, it is, however, a need which is underlined by many motorists. Moreover, a few months ago, in Calizzano, SK, migrant Pakistani origin, host of the cooperative “The Beech” at the Lux hotel, was hit and seriously injured while he was driving on the state 490 on board a bike, it apparently without any kind of warning light.

They write, then, by the city: “This is to inform MISUSE Cooperative received several reports to the City of the potential hazard to the safety of persons caused by foot traffic on Sp11 Plodio-Carcare of immigrants currently housed in the City of Plodio, as devoid of any clothing act to promote their visibility. At night, and in shaded areas, this fact causes a safety hazard, aggravated by the fact that often pedestrians walk past the street side of the road in some areas does not show particularly broad and straight. It therefore asks to want sensitize adequately migrants with special reference to the need to have clothing with reflective tape for night visibility; and to walk on the roadside also in “Indian file”, in such a way as not to occupy part of the road surface traveled by the vehicle. ”

And the mayor Gabriele, it’s not only to avoid misunderstandings, but also the victim of a “reverse racism.” Explains: “For safety reasons, I am signed an order on the need to have lights on the bike to get around at night. Regardless of the color of the skin of the rider, and it would seem a strange thing? And at the same Highway Code is not expected to automobilist to come out from their car, even just to change a tire, please bring a special reflective vest? Or jogger does not use those yellow jackets highlighter? Given that migrants circulate especially walking, it is right to be concerned for their safety and that of others. “
