Enhanced Traffic Management Day with Strengthened Road Regulation Enforcement
Saxony-Anhalt authorities plan to bolster road traffic checks next week in line with the nationwide "sicher.mobil.leben" initiative, with a focus on child safety, as announced by the Magdeburg-based Ministry of the Interior. The campaign, which takes place annually since 2018, typically prioritizes various road safety measures to minimize accidents.
On Tuesday, the state will concentrate efforts on specific risks faced by children en route to kindergarten, school, or playgrounds. This includes emphasizing the importance of seat belts, discouraging smartphone distractions, and promoting correct pedestrian and cyclist behavior.
The ministry's focal points for this year's action day further aim to raise awareness about the heightened risks children face on the roads. Among standard practices for the "sicher.mobil.leben" campaign are increased police presence around schools, kindergartens, and playgrounds, educating children about road rules, promoting proper child seating and restraint systems, and enforcing laws against dangerous overtaking near school buses and child-designated zones.
Although specific details for Saxony-Anhalt’s 2022 "sicher.mobil.leben" focus were not found within the current search results, these measures are typical for nationwide activities targeting child road users. Readers are encouraged to consult the Sachsen-Anhalt Ministry of Interior for official, state-specific details about this year's action day.
