Toussaint : Gendarmerie de la Marne renforce la sécurité routière
With the arrival of All Saints' Day, the Gendarmerie de la Marne is stepping up its efforts to ensure road safety. The department, known for its beautiful landscapes and picturesque villages, attracts many visitors during this period, leading to increased traffic on its roads.
Increased Traffic, Increased Risk
The influx of vehicles during All Saints' Day brings with it a higher risk of accidents. Distracted driving, speeding, and fatigue are just some of the factors that can contribute to accidents. The Gendarmerie de la Marne understands this and is taking proactive measures to ensure the safety of all road users.
Gendarmerie de la Marne's Measures
To tackle this challenge, the Gendarmerie de la Marne has implemented several measures:
- Increased Patrols: Patrols will be intensified on key roads and highways, particularly during peak travel times.
- Alcohol and Drug Control: The Gendarmerie will conduct more alcohol and drug control checks to prevent drivers under the influence from getting behind the wheel.
- Speed Control: Speed enforcement will be rigorously carried out, with a focus on areas known for speeding violations.
- Awareness Campaigns: Public awareness campaigns are being launched to remind drivers of the importance of safe driving practices, such as maintaining a safe distance, avoiding distractions, and being aware of their surroundings.
Call for Responsibility
The Gendarmerie de la Marne urges all drivers to exercise caution and responsibility on the roads during this busy period. It emphasizes the following:
- Plan your journey: Make sure you are well-rested and allow enough time for your trip.
- Avoid distractions: Put away your phone, avoid using GPS devices while driving, and concentrate on the road.
- Respect speed limits: Speed limits are in place for a reason. Always adhere to them and adjust your speed according to road conditions.
- Don't drive under the influence: If you plan to consume alcohol or drugs, arrange for an alternate mode of transportation.
By working together, the Gendarmerie de la Marne and all road users can contribute to a safe and enjoyable All Saints' Day.
