reinforced security measures in road traffic

This week drivers in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss have to expect intensive speed controls. From Monday, August 5th to Sunday, August 11th, the annual speed camera marathon will take place in North Rhine-Westphalia and other federal states, which aims to increase awareness of the dangers in road traffic.

causes of traffic accidents

The initiators of the speed camera marathon, in particular the NRW interior of the interior, emphasize that excessive speed and unadjusted driving behavior in poor weather conditions, such as heavy rain, are among the most common causes of traffic accidents. The speed camera marathon is intended to ensure that drivers rethink their driving behavior and are more secure.

police leads through

depending on the decision and resources of the local police authorities, the measures are different. The officials can be on the go with laser pistols, permanently installed speedfalls or mobile units. In addition to the speed measurement, the focus of the controls is also on the checking of alcohol and drug use at the wheel.

social importance of traffic safety

The speed camera marathon is not only regarded as a series of controls, but rather as an important step to sensitize the population about the risks in road traffic. This campaign should not only act as a deterrent measure, but also stimulate a rethink in the driving style in the long term. Every responsible road user contributes to safety on the streets, which ultimately leads to reducing accidents.

look at the future

While increased controls are characterized this week, it remains to be seen whether the measures have the desired effect on driving behavior in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss and beyond. A successful traffic safety campaign could help to ensure that road users also pay attention to speed and security after the speed camera marathon and thus minimize accidents in the future.
