The Vial Week allows 30 blind people to be driven in a closed circuit for the first time (09/10/2018)

The collaboration between the Association of Driving Schools of the Region of Murcia (Aramur) and the City of Murcia, carry out the 'Vial Week', a unique event in Europe that positions Murcia as a reference in terms of road safety and is celebrated until Thursday.

This morning, the councilors of Traffic and Public Safety, Lola Sanchez, and Social Rights and Development Cooperation, Conchita Ruiz, attended the activity 'Blind people at the wheel' in La Fica.

Together with the ONCE, the teachers, members of Aramur, have enabled dozens of vehicles equipped with double command at the service of a group of 30 blind people in a closed circuit, to give them the possibility of getting behind the wheel for the first time.

In parallel, training courses adapted to disability have also been carried out at La Fica, in a conference organized by Aramur jointly with the association of traffic victims ASPAYM.

At 12 they have started the 'Training sessions for professionals' in the Provincial Traffic Headquarters of Murcia, with the aim of promoting the continuous training and improvement of road training teachers of the driving schools associated with it, with the aim of giving the best training for their students and that they are safe drivers.

The third edition of 'Vial Week' aims to reduce road accidents 'in itinere', ie, those traffic accidents suffered by the worker to go to or return to the workplace, as well as accidents 'on mission', referred to to the trips made by workers outside the company premises during their workday.

In addition, this event seeks to remember the rules of circulation between pedestrians, cyclists and drivers, encourage risk perception and self-care in all roads.

In short, it is a week full of different activities related to road safety and the agents involved.
