Penso sia dovuto al costante aumento delle dimensioni delle macchine. Ormai tutte le auto sono SUV
Non passa giorno che non rischio di essere messo sotto perchè purtroppo c’è ancora una fetta importante di popolazione che, semplicemente, non si ferma per far attraversare.
Questo si evince molto bene dai numeri purtroppo.
Bisognerebbe trovare il modo di ricordare o insegnare a chi guida (specialmente a chi ha una certa età) che sulle strisce la precedenza **ce l’ha il pedone**.
Più di due feriti ogni ora, un morto e mezzo ogni giorno.
Le auto nelle città non devono esserci, punto. Non sono mezzi fatti per navigare tra le persone.
Siamo una società di persone, non di auto.
Bisogna potenziare mobilità alternativa (per davvero) e ridisegnare città.
Invece a Milano si tolgono le piste ciclabili per “garantire la sicurezza dei ciclisti”. Disgustoso.
> marciapiede (29 decessi in 782 incidenti), mentre camminava regolarmente sul margine della carreggiata (25 decessi in 825 incidenti), mentre lavorava sulla carreggiata protetto da apposito segnale (5 decessi e 25 sinistri)
> sulle strisce pedonali ben 8.276 con 175 decessi, 156 in ambito urbano e 19 in ambito extraurbano
Semplicemente assurdo
In Lombardia tutte la quote registrate sicuro su quella merda di A4 con l’uscita ad imbuto che ogni giorno 2 incidenti minimo perché la gente non sa guidare. A me spiace ma se ne fai uno del genere sarebbe da ritiro della patente fisso, un po’ di polso poi magari la gente ci pensa a correre
Ogni anno prendono la patente dei ragazzi che vivono letteralmente attaccati allo smartphone. Io non invidio i pedoni, ciclisti e motociclisti. L’uso del telefono alla guida sta diventando un’epidemia e diventerà la causa principale di incidente.
