Pader­born Uni­ver­sity in­vites you to Road Safety Day on 28 Oc­to­ber

The topic of mobility is multifaceted and affects almost everyone. Paderborn University is actively committed to road safety and is organising a road safety day on Tuesday, 28 October on the campus on 365体育_足球比分网¥投注直播官网 Stra?e. Under the motto "Safe and healthy to university", there will be a colourful programme with numerous hands-on activities in the foyer of the university and in front of the main entrance from 9.30 am to 4 pm. Research projects will also play a role. Admission to the road safety day is free. Participation in the programme is free of charge and no registration is required.

"Road safety is an issue that concerns us all," says Simone Probst, Vice President for Business and Human Resources Management. "Whether on foot, by car, bicycle, e-scooter or motorbike - everyone can help prevent accidents by adopting the right behaviour." The organisational lead for the Road Safety Day is taken by the university's Department 5.3 Occupational Safety, Environmental Protection and Health Protection. Diana Riedel, head of the department, is delighted with the wide range of activities on offer: "You can find out about current traffic topics at interactive stations. In addition, professionals from the police and road safety organisations, for example, introduce themselves and provide valuable tips for everyday mobility." Her colleague Matthias We?ling played a key role in organising the day of action and is particularly looking forward to various simulators: "Here, participants can experience real-life borderline situations in various means of transport - whether in a car rollover simulator or during a collision simulation. The impressions they gain remain in their minds."

Some road accidents leave their mark on health, with psychological or physical impairments as a result. As part of accident prevention, the day of action therefore focusses on preventative action. Under the motto "Lightweight construction and crash safety - thinking together", the university's Lightweight Construction in Automobiles (LiA) department will present current research results for the mobility of the future.
