Local Police: Shooting Monday targeting the crossings on the street abandoned building

From Monday, February 14 have resumed control of the Local Police specifically targeted to the protection of pedestrians on the white stripes: the failure precedence to pedestrian crossings results in a penalty of 154 € and 8 points deduction for a driver's license. "These measures are heavy - says councilor security Antonio Dalla Pozza - but are justified by the still too little attention to motorists, motorcyclists and cyclists sometimes even in respect of vulnerable road users, ie pedestrians. Poor Note that sometimes, in Vicenza, has turned into serious accidents, even fatal. It is therefore the will of harassment, but to stress the vital importance of proper behavior that local police and returned to dedicate specifically to the controls at pedestrian crossings. Controls announced in advance, just to ask motorists to adapt and thus avoid being sanctioned . On the first day of checks to promote respect of the above who is on foot was not high for any penalty. The command of the local police engaging in this activity three patrols in the morning and three in the afternoon, occupate contestualmente a controllare il rispetto delle limitazioni alla circolazione contro l’inquinamento dell’aria. " Ovviamente non posso che essere soddisfatto della mancanza di sanzioni nel primo giorno di controlli – ha aggiunto l’assessore Dalla Pozza - . Infatti all'amministrazione non interessano tanto queste, quanto piuttosto il far riflettere gli automobilisti, attraverso il rispetto della norma, sulla pericolosità di un comportamento che potrebbe avere conseguenze gravissime. Non rispettare la precedenza sugli attraversamenti toglie al pedone che subisce l'investimento qualunque possibilità di limitare i danni, come potrebbe avvenire nel caso di scontro tra veicoli, magari dotati di sistemi di highly advanced passive safety. We will continue with these controls, so that Vicenza is getting closer to European cities, where the user "weak" is respected and where motorists recognize, without the need to order specific control activities, the right of pedestrians to cross roads security. "From late January to Friday, during routine checks, local police had fined eight drivers who, despite the presence of pedestrians, the crossing had not stopped. The violations were found during San Felice, Via Val Battalion Leogra against the Piard, via Rodolfi, via Fratelli Bandiera, via Framarin Battalion, viale viale San Lazzaro and Milan. All were fined for taking a penalty of 154 € and 8 points on the license curtailment.
