A back-to-school campaign is raising awareness about road risks near schools. The initiative aims to make parents, children, and drivers aware of the need for greater care in school zones during this period.
The National Road Safety Authority is the entity responsible for revealing alarming data about pedestrian accidents. According to this authority, a pedestrian being hit at 50 kilometers per hour can be fatal in up to 90% of cases.
This data serves as a warning about the importance of reducing speed near educational establishments. The campaign emphasizes that pedestrians, especially children, are particularly vulnerable when crossing public roads near schools.
The campaign's objective is to promote more attentive and cautious driving in school zones, contributing to a safer back-to-school period for everyone.
