The biggest concern is related to the excessive consumption of alcohol, which can also lead to traffic accidents and reckless situations in which a person’s life can be in danger.
In order for this time to pass peacefully and without tragic incidents, the State Police (VP), the State Fire and Rescue Service (VUGD) and the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) call on citizens to act responsibly and conscientiously, paying special attention to road safety, safe housing, as well as taking care of your health and that of your loved ones.
The police call on every road user to be responsible and protect themselves and others from the consequences of reckless behavior. During the upcoming holiday holidays, in addition to daily traffic control, the police will pay special attention to specific traffic hazards – as far as possible, the police will conduct inspections, emphasizing that drivers do not drive under the influence of alcohol, as well as checking seat belts and whether passengers are being transported safely.
The attitude of fellow citizens can play a decisive role in preventing an accident, so the services call on not to remain indifferent and to report cases when a driver tries to drive a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.
The weather is changeable and the roads may be icy, so you should choose a driving style appropriate to the weather and the road surface.
A large proportion of tragic house fires could be prevented if people were careful and responsible in following fire safety requirements. Therefore, VUGD reminds about safe burning of candles and the use of strings of lamps.
Taking care of your health and that of your loved ones, doctors recommend not to drink alcohol or do it in moderation, protect children from burns and provide children with appropriate toys.
During the long holiday holidays, the consultation telephone number of family doctors 6601 6001 will work around the clock, where doctors will listen to the patient’s complaints, evaluate them and advise what to do, for example, what medications to use to resolve the crisis. Also, on-call doctors and emergency medical assistance points will work during the holidays.
