Traffic and road safety policy is increasingly being measured against reality, with the aim of making roads safer for all road users. The evaluation of accidents helps to identify further risks in road traffic and to act accordingly. It turns out that even with seemingly small signs, such as “poor steering”, it is better to look twice in order to avoid accidents.
In view of the current accidents, it is advisable to reconsider road safety and to consult a specialist straight away if there are conspicuous vehicles. In this way, one or two painful incidents may be prevented.
