They got motorists to slow down with a hair dryer

In the framework of Road Safety Day, the group Bicycles Vida made a simulation of controls on route 82 and deceived motorists by making them believe they were taking speed. Interestingly, they managed to get the foot off the accelerator.

 

As part of the Road Safety Day, the Bicycles Vida group made a curious intervention on Route 82 and managed to trick motorists into dropping speed.

Wearing a reflective vest and located at a strategic location on Route 82, they pointed to the cars with hair dryer simulating measuring radar. The practice initiated in London and then expanded throughout the world.

 

Juan Valle, from the group Bicycles Vida, told Noisier Sees “route 82 is a very difficult route for us because it passes through the middle of the city but it is still a provincial route and people take it as almost a highway.” As specified, the maximum speed on route 82 is 60 km / h “and people pass 100 quietly.” The objective is to “raise awareness and make people realize that one out there without realizing it is going very fast on this route and we have to respect the maximum speed.”

 

“A little we are children of rigor: the issue of controls is fundamental because even if one tries to be aware, often with the hurry, the quick arrival, all other things go to the background and when they see a control they remember “maintained Valle in yellow vest. On the other hand, he thanked Visalia for placing speed reducers on route 82, which “we have been asking for more than two years.”
