Gendarmerie de la Marne: Increased Roadside Checks for All Saints' Day

As All Saints' Day (Toussaint) approaches, the Gendarmerie de la Marne is stepping up its presence on the roads to ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians. With increased traffic expected during this holiday period, the gendarmerie is implementing a series of roadside checks to enforce road safety regulations and prevent accidents.

Increased Control Measures

The gendarmerie will be focusing on:

• Speeding: Excessive speed is a leading cause of accidents, and officers will be actively monitoring speed limits and issuing fines to those who exceed them.
• Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs: The gendarmerie will be conducting breathalyzer tests and drug tests to ensure drivers are sober behind the wheel.
• Wearing seatbelts: The gendarmerie will be checking that all occupants are wearing their seatbelts, as this is a critical safety measure.
• Distracted driving: The use of mobile phones while driving is prohibited and will be strictly enforced.

Safety Recommendations for Drivers

To ensure a safe journey during the All Saints' Day holiday, the gendarmerie recommends the following:

• Plan your route in advance.
• Check your vehicle's condition before driving.
• Drive at a safe speed and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles.
• Avoid driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Take breaks every two hours to rest.
• Be aware of your surroundings and anticipate potential hazards.

Enhanced Safety for Pedestrians

The gendarmerie also urges pedestrians to be vigilant and take extra precautions, particularly in areas with increased traffic:

• Cross the street at designated crosswalks.
• Pay attention to traffic signals and signs.
• Be aware of your surroundings and avoid distractions.
• Wear bright clothing at night to make yourself more visible to drivers.

Increased Visibility and Safety

The gendarmerie's increased presence on the roads is aimed at deterring reckless driving behaviors and creating a safer environment for all road users. By following these safety recommendations and being aware of their surroundings, drivers and pedestrians can help contribute to a safe and enjoyable holiday period.

Remember, the gendarmerie is dedicated to ensuring the safety of all road users. By working together, we can make our roads safer for everyone.
