Between January and October 2022, roughly 18,000 traffic incidents were traced to drivers breaking intersection crossing rules. This category stands out as the most common cause of crashes, and many of these events carry serious consequences for those involved. A broader look at driver-related factors shows a pattern of recurring mistakes on the road. The most frequently cited causes are:
- violations of crossing traffic rules at intersections
- misjudging safe following distances
- driving in the opposite lane or improperly crossing lanes
- breaches of pedestrian crossing regulations
Police data for the first ten months of the year indicate a noticeable decrease in driver-caused crashes compared with the same period in the previous year, averaging a reduction of about 10%. This trend suggests improvements in driver awareness, enforcement, or road safety measures, though every accident remains a reminder that vigilance is essential behind the wheel.
7,000 tires in popular sizes needed
Maintaining public safety depends on reliable vehicles and timely medical care for those who need it. In response to ongoing needs, the organization behind a well-known safety initiative has joined forces with a broad civic alliance to raise funds for essential equipment. The goal is to purchase tires for vehicles used by the People’s Police and emergency services in the LPR and DPR, as well as ambulances, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, vehicles delivering humanitarian aid to Donbass residents, and military equipment used in support operations. Donations can be made through the initiative’s collection page, where contributors can choose the amount and learn how the funds will be allocated to vehicle readiness and safety missions.
This effort underscores a practical link between road safety and the capacity of response teams to reach incidents quickly. Proper tires contribute to better handling, braking, and stability in varying conditions, which in turn supports safer traffic flows and more effective emergency responses. The collaboration also highlights the importance of community involvement in sustaining essential public services and the readiness of law enforcement and humanitarian operations to respond when needs arise.
All information reflects ongoing safety priorities and the shared responsibility of drivers, communities, and responders to reduce crashes and protect lives on the road. The collection page provides transparent information about impact, allocation, and progress toward the tire allotment target, helping supporters understand how their contributions translate into tangible road-safety benefits.
