Last year was also a higher number of seriously injured. Those ambulances took them one hundred and sixteen. It's about eight more than the year before.

Among the victims of accidents last year were thirteen drivers, seven passengers, two motorcyclists and six pedestrians without safety vest or clothing with reflective tape.

Police officers want this year to focus more on prevention. "We want to focus more on stretches of road where the accident with serious consequences happen. Of the twenty-eight fatal accidents happened twelve first class road, "he outlined the regional traffic police chief Yaroslavl Rehab.

 From the standpoint of safety it is now very problematic road from the border with Poland from Habartice Liberec.

Often it is the Poles who are heading to work in Liberec industrial zone.

Pole was also one of the last twenty-eight killed. He died in September when, due to a technical problem stopped near into his car and moments later crashed ambulance.

  "Risk is a road especially during shift changes, mainly in the morning between six and seven and then around one and two in the afternoon, and around twenty-second clock," explains Yaroslavl Rehab.

  Strengthen the police with reflective vest will also focus on the road in the vicinity of Mache Lake and environs. Also there are serious traffic accidents.

 At the end of last year on the main road between the villages of Deer Park on the Northwest Bella pod even two policemen were killed when their van collided with a truck.

   More frequent checks will in Jawbone.

  They rushed to the border crossing Petro vice take over from German colleague’s person, the subject of a European arrest warrant.

   Frequent inspection, drivers can expect on the road I / 9 in the Cask Lipan and I / 10 in Jawbone. To drive faster seduces especially motorcyclists. It is alarming and six dead pedestrians. There are three more than in the previous year.

  According to the chief of traffic police could help the amendment to the Act that would establish obligation reflective elements for pedestrians moving in unlit areas. Prescription probably will take effect in October.

"Reflective material would certainly help the driver is easily notices. The Slovak regulation already applies, the number of pedestrians killed there fell, "said Yaroslavl Rehab.

  In intensive prevention will continue SCUBA? For example, we are going to continue the program for novice motorcyclists. They are not sufficiently rutted, yet very powerful machines often sought and revalue them on their abilities. It will focus on traffic education of children.

 "Financially we support transport operators pitches and we will deal with children in the schools," mentioned Vladimir Mastic, regional councilor for transport.

 Aid could also alterations to some risky roads.

  "In preparing Habartice RMD island to reduce speed at the entrance to the village," one of the adjustments outlined a regional transport chief John Stork.

 Thanks narrowing should be safer and vitriol at the intersection near the Czech Lipan. Among the riskiest places in the region, only last year on her happen around ten serious accidents.

Reflective tape and safety vest brand Accent is probably one of the most famous products of Polish cyclists - from amateur to players. It consists of two factors: excellent availability Accent in retail sales and a good value for the quality of their products. Autumn in our editorial entertained Accent Lobster gloves that reached us along with the already tested the gloves Ice Storm (test available here). Winter came to us this year a little later, and when he appeared, showed his usually gentle face, so the test model Lobster have to wait for the more demanding conditions. It is finally the assumption of one of the warmest Accent models on offer.

Building

Which glove everybody can see - 5 fingers, cuff ... oops! Exactly Model Lobster is different, what you see at first glance. The tested product belongs to the group of gloves with a common chamber for several fingers (in this case three). The chamber is inside a separate "guides" or those who prefer tunnels, for each finger individually. The index finger and thumb are separate, which of course is related to the need to shift the braking convenient and simply improved and a driving bicycle is not always easy winter conditions. Lobster model building type has its supporters and opponents, but one thing is certain - additional layers and the spaces between them, which can be found in the model Lobster, give us more protection from the cold. The model is available in a wide range of sizes, so no problem, each with potential users will choose for themselves the appropriate size.

Gloves on the front side were enriched waterproof membrane Hipper. The membrane together with the material well diverters sweat is extremely important when talking about the use in the winter. Each of the riders knows that frost can protect, but frost combined with moisture is often difficult obstacle to overcome. On the inside they are sewn Lobster (like their thinner siblings Ice Storm) of the material in suede-like structure, which gives solid and secure grip on the handlebar. We find compulsory thumb loop reflective material in advance, which will enable us to wipe his face.

Winter gloves is another extremely important element - is obviously cuff. In the case of the tested model Accent decided on the cuff in the form of a flexible, high-puller. At the outset, part of the users is known to be prejudiced against this type of cuffs - finally after 30 minutes of dressing on the bike we will have to take care of pulling the sleeve to the cuff, so that frost did not work on our wrists. Those less many patient users will appreciate, however, is that this type of cuff will be better warmed their joints. The circle is closed, there are pros and cons.

Lobster accent like other manufacturer's models were enriched with reflective tape, which in conjunction with the hem side in a fashionable color fluorescent increase our visibility on the road (automatically increase the visibility of our gestures, signaling twist, etc.). Admittedly, the whole present themselves nicely gloves and aesthetic inscription Accent, the manufacturer's logo and the selvages colored fluorescent build effective product design.
