The Rollercops on duty all summer

The Rollercops on duty all summer Throughout the summer, the Rollercops will be on the alert. They will do everything to ensure safety during the Roller Parades. (AVPRESS) Their mission is to facilitate the smooth running of the Roller Parades MONS ∇ Security missions fall to the Rollercops. In collaboration with the city of Mons and the organizers of the Roller Parade, their mission is to facilitate the smooth running of the Roller Parades this summer. Last Saturday, they attended the second Mons departure. A small group, in fact, arrived on site, just a few minutes before the departure was given. "We must do everything to ensure that the parade runs without the slightest problem. We monitor and observe anything that could jeopardize safety," explains one of them. Thus, these roller-skating police officers channeled the group of participants to prevent excessive overflow onto public roads. They had to manage important intersections and make the procession homogeneous. The roller-skating police officers will set an example in terms of attire, behavior, and protection on public roads and will advise participants. They are also there to remind them of the basic safety principles and rules of the road code, such as wearing essential protections (helmet, wrist guards, knee pads, elbow pads) but also clothing that allows them to be seen and recognized, such as fluorescent vests, reflective jackets... Not forgetting small white and red lights. Even manuals Other important advice provided by them: skating on sidewalks or bike paths, adapting one's speed according to the weather and circulating pedestrians, and especially paying attention to the movements of motorized vehicles. The Rollercops also distributed on Saturday (and will continue to do so throughout the summer) manuals for the perfect Roller from the IBSR, downloadable from www.ibsr.be.
