Fatal error pedestrian
Russian traffic police published on its website the findings of experts who, based on data from international sources, compiled a list of myths that pedestrians, particularly children, are often believed. SAI encourages all parents to ensure that neither they nor their children are not affected by such errors.
Myth 1
The green light means that you can cross the road with full confidence in their own security.
In fact, a green light means you must stop and look around in search engines. Before you go off the pavement, you should look to the left, right and then left again. And then, making sure life is not in danger, you can move to the opposite side of the street, continuing to look right and left. In addition, care must be taken in respect of vehicles which make a right turn on red.
Myth 2
"Zebra" - a guarantor of security.
In fact, you can move on "zebra", but before it is required to look around from side to side, as in the previous case. On a pedestrian crossing can not stop distracted, something to lift, let alone play.
Myth 3
If you see the driver, the driver sees you.
In fact, the driver can not see you. Make sure before you cross the road, the driver sees and passes you.
Myth 4
The driver will stop if you are standing at a crosswalk or crossing the street at a green light.
In fact, as in the previous case, the driver may not have noticed. He can break the rules and try to pass on a red light, or can be rotated, not looking around for pedestrians. So, before you cross the roadway, you must again ensure their own safety.
Myth 5
Wear light colored clothing at night enough to be noticeable on the road.
In fact, the light does not have visible at night. It is necessary to bring a thing with reflective elements to "light up" on the road. Another important advice for driving on streets at night - always walk facing traffic.
