  2. Our team consists of 5 students from the 9th grade and a lead teacher. We found out about the road safety audit concept on the Internet and we tried to reach as many people as we can. On the last stage of our initiative we gathered 210 people, 180 of whom were young people.

Out of 75 vehicles and 15 pedestrians during the audit: • 57% did not keep distance; • 76% changed lanes without turn signal; • 93% entered a restricted area or went in wrong direction; • 48% cut-off another driver or a pedestrian; • 70% of the parked vehicles were in a no-parking zone; • 40% of the pedestrians crossed on red light; • 20% of the pedestrians crossed on an unmarked location.
