From April 22 to 27, the traffic police is conducting a preventive operation “Pedestrian Crossing” on the territory of Vladimir. On April 24, its participants – propaganda officers of the State Traffic Inspectorate, traffic police inspectors, teachers and students of Lyceum No. 17, members of the “parental patrol” – held an action near the road ring at the intersection of Balakirev Street and Ivanova Boulevard.
Schoolchildren drew a large propaganda poster about road safety and a reminder.

In addition to the reminders, they also distributed flicker keychains for children.
