Caution is the key to your safety!

The development of transport infrastructure helps to solve many problems related to the timely delivery of goods and comfortable passenger transportation, while at the same time creating numerous dangers to human life.

Over 12 months of 2020, 7 cases of non-occupational injury to citizens were registered at the railway department, including 4 fatalities (one of which was a suicide). Of the 7 injured, 4 were intoxicated. There were no injured minors or railway workers. Emergency braking was applied by train drivers 18 times to prevent collisions with people and vehicles; in 13 cases, collisions were averted.

As of 01.06.2021, 3 cases of injury to citizens by railway rolling stock have been registered, including one fatality.

Remember: it is dangerous to cross railway tracks, to be near railway tracks while wearing headphones, and also while intoxicated.

Disregard for the rules of conduct on railway tracks can lead to tragedy.

Remember that a moving train cannot be stopped immediately!
