Hungarian police uses child zombies to raise awareness – VIDEO

People walking down the street with their phones in their hands, their head kept down, their gaze locked on the screen, seemingly perceiving absolutely nothing form the outside world. Does it sound familiar? Digital natives help the world go forward, but they can be quite dangerous both to themselves and to others in traffic.

I think the very first thing that anyone learns at drivers’ ed. is to always pay attention to your surroundings. When you are driving a car, hopefully, you are constantly looking around, looking at the other cars, the pedestrians on the sidewalk, etc. What about pedestrians? Do they have the same responsibility to always pay attention to the other road users? Yes! Unfortunately, many Hungarian pedestrians do not know or do not care about this obligation.

Index reported that the Hungarian police posted a new video on their YouTube channel to raise awareness to the lack of attention pedestrians pay to their surroundings in traffic.

In the 21st century, we are used to paying extra attention to people who are seemingly unable to look away from their phones, not even while crossing the street. These people often bump into others, they step down the sidewalk when they should not, and sometimes they even bump into objects like lamps or trash cans. Their behaviour is very similar to that of zombies – an observation that the Hungarian police also made. Check out their educational video entitled Responsibly, even as a pedestrian! below:
