Commencement of School: Tabbert advocates cautious driving

In the city of Potsdam, Brandenburg, a call for vigilance has been made ahead of the new school year. Detlef Tabbert, the Minister of Transport from the BSW party, issued a statement on behalf of his ministry, urging all road users to practice extra caution.

With approximately 24,000 first-graders set to start school in Brandenburg on Monday, the focus of the statement was on the safety of these youngest students, particularly the first-graders. The Minister emphasised the importance of road safety during this critical period, asking drivers to be forward-thinking, considerate, and mindful of the increased number of children on the roads.

The Minister's priority is to protect these young students, and he encouraged parents to practice the route to school with their children before the first day, to familiarise them with the journey and ensure they are aware of any potential hazards.

The new school year has already begun in Potsdam, and the Minister's statement serves as a timely reminder to all road users to be extra cautious during this busy period. As the children of Brandenburg embark on a new academic year, the Minister's call for consideration and thoughtfulness on the roads aims to ensure a safe and smooth start to the school year for all involved.
