Children measure speed: funny traffic safety campaign in Höflein!

In the case of an extraordinary traffic safety campaign by the AUVA, the pupils of the Höflein Commenders took control of the speed of the drivers. Children were given the opportunity to carry out speed measurements and to award documents in the form of "grades" to the automotive road users. Anyone who followed the speed limits could be happy about a pleasant apple, while Raser were punished with an “acid” lemon. This measure was taken to point out the alarming fact that a whopping 60 percent of drivers exceed the permitted speeds, reported Noen.at .
