Let those peo­ple cross: respect the pedestrians

As the Soviet Union could pos­si­bly be named the coun­try of pro­pa­ganda, this array of fun edu­ca­tional posters only sup­ports this notion — albeit this time in quite a pos­i­tive sense. A Ukrain­ian author­ship of the road rules and safety in a funky and engag­ing man­ner teaches dri­vers to give way to pedes­tri­ans, respect the zero tol­er­ance limit, reminds of the school zone rules as well as the neces­sity to get the car checked reg­u­larly. Pos­si­bly kitschy, but it does get the mes­sage across. Enjoy!

School zone: be extra attentive!

Break­ing the road rules affects every­one on the roads.

The sign is the boss.

Let the pas­sen­gers off safely.

Keep it safe.

Do check the car’s fitness

Just a drop can catch up with you

Keep to your lane: swing­ing is dangerous.
