Moscow, March 16. State Duma Deputy Vyacheslav Lysakov intends to send a letter to the government with a request to oblige manufacturers to place reflective materials on children's, school and sports clothing. Reports about it "Parliamentary newspaper".
The parliamentarian recalled that pedestrians on unlit roads are required to wear reflective vests in Russia. Jackets with reflective stripes should also be in possession of motorists going outside the settlements. Light-returning items on clothing may save a pedestrian’s life, but liability for violating the rules on wearing them makes it difficult to monitor their performance.
According to the author of the initiative, government agencies will be much more efficient in controlling enterprises than citizens. In this case, the rules should apply to both domestic products and goods from abroad.
"The state is obliged to protect the life and health of citizens not only by increasing fines for violating traffic rules or introducing new punitive measures against offenders but also by regulating the activities of industrialists in the interests of people's safety," said Lysakov.
According to preliminary calculations, the introduction of new rules can lead to a price increase of clothing by 10 - 15%.
