During the reconstruction of Šilutės Ramučių Street, the safety of the crossing was also taken into account. New traffic lights, a level crossing bar and a “Stop” sign have been installed. Although this sign is different in this place from what is normally seen by residents of Šilutė, the sign “Stop” is on a white background. Many, unaware of its meaning, stop before him.
Traffic regulations establish that said sign at a level crossing indicates the place where vehicles must stop in the event of a prohibited traffic light. However, most coastal people understand the meaning of this sign as a ban on driving without stopping in front of the Stop sign. According to V. Knapkis, it is necessary to remind people of the traffic rules and there are courses for offending drivers.
“Most of the offensive drivers who listen to the course are happy to update their knowledge. Traffic regulations and signs are changing and it is no wonder that many long-term survivors are not aware of the new signs in Šilutė, ”said the director of the driving school.
