“Dad arranged cykellysen – students”
“A parent to children in a Danish school lessnade on students bikes without lights in the dark. Then he took hold of the thing itself – and arranged 170 belysningsset, reports Danish TV2.”
“To ride a bike in the dark without lights is not allowed in Sweden. The man becomes stopped, it can end with fines. The same applies in Denmark – and this is where the parent Lasse Kjeldsen taken matters into their own hands. He has three children at Hundested School and booby-trapped so during Tuesday morning a ”trap” for those students who cycle without lights in the morgonmörkret, writes TV2.”
“– There are so many cyclists at the school, ranging from preschoolers to teachers, running without lights. It is difficult to see a dark clad cyclist on a black bike without lights. I often think: ”what if I hit someone,” he says to the channel.”
“the Trap went out to surprise riders with a mandatory installation of lighting. Lasse Kjeldsen had, with the help of local companies, got a hold in the 170 belysningsset. During the first action, went about ten people in the ”trap”. Now have planned for further two occasions when the pupils ‘ bicycles must be fitted with lights.”
“– At the school goes there almost 700 students and about half bikes. One morning in december, I stood at one of the three cykelingångarna to the school to count the number of cyclists without lights. In a quarter of an hour I counted to 31. It became clear that there is a problem, ” says the principal Malena Nyenstad to TV2.”
“the Students also got to hear a few sobering words from a police officer in the area. Some fines were, however, not out.”
“On the Facebook call the school action for ”a success”.”
