Police services across Quebec, along with road inspectors from the Société de l’assurance automobile du Québec (SAAQ), will carry out more intensive interventions and awareness activities between April 25 and May 1.
This operation is part of the joint national initiative (ONC) “Sharing the Road.”
Under the theme “Road safety, I’m on board,” this ONC aims to remind all road users of the importance of obeying traffic laws, regardless of the mode of transportation used.
It also seeks to encourage behaviors that promote the safety of everyone on the road.
This initiative is part of the awareness campaign for the Road Safety Action Plan (RSAP) 2023–2028.
The SAAQ is supporting these objectives by launching an awareness campaign running from April 14 to May 18.
Messages on this topic will be broadcast via billboards, radio, and television.
The Sûreté du Québec is also making sure that users of motorized personal transportation devices (MPTDs), such as electric scooters and unicycles, are not forgotten in this operation, as their numbers continue to grow.
Some drivers of these vehicles are inexperienced and may therefore be vulnerable. Raising their awareness of various road safety issues is of utmost importance.
School zones and transportation will be heavily monitored in the coming week to protect children, who are also considered vulnerable road users. (J.C.)
