Police officers in southern Bohemia have been fined on roads outside the pedestrian village since 1 November, who do not have mandatory reflective vests in low visibility. Patrols of Pesky Kremlin caught without reflective elements of each other pedestrian.
"With the onset of autumn, when visibility is diminished both in the morning and in the evening, traffic and safety actions were announced in November, focusing mainly on the visibility of pedestrians moving under reduced visibility on roads outside the village. Police officers check whether pedestrians adhere to the law and use reflective elements to increase their visibility, "police spokesman Lena said.
Traffic police officers in Pesky Kremlin landed on the ground just the first day. They stopped 12 pedestrians. Half had mandatory reflective materials, six people went along the road outside the village without them.
"Three pedestrians who have broken the provisions of the law have received a blocked line. Everyone paid 500 crowns. Three other police officers have been reminded of age and have taught them about the need to use reflexive elements. "Kosovo said, adding that traffic police have reflective ribbons in their cars, so they gave it to all who did not.
An amendment to the law ordering pedestrians on roads outside the village to wear reflective elements began to apply this February 20. Up until now, the police have been rather preventive. Fines can give up to two thousand crowns.
"Similar events will continue in the days and other districts," Kosovo said.
