Low-Speed Traffic & Visibility Pose Safety Risks

The city council has announced a plan to mandate reflective stickers for all vehicles, particularly heavy-duty trucks and parked vehicles at night. Analysis indicates that the combination of low vehicle speeds and reduced visibility creates a significant risk of accidents. The objective is to reduce the frequency of collisions. The council is currently evaluating different sticker designs and distribution strategies. The program will begin with a pilot project in designated areas, with a focus on optimizing effectiveness.
