The square in front of the Szent Adalbert Centre in Esztergom was once again filled with children as the Magyar Suzuki “Cycling Traffic Safety Park” welcomed its youngest road users. Children aged 3-10 had the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of safe road use through a series of fun and interactive activities.

Do we leave enough following distance? Do we know how much lateral clearance is required when overtaking a cyclist, or how long it takes a vehicle to come to a stop at motorway speeds? According to a nationally representative survey commissioned by Magyar Suzuki and conducted by Ipsos, while most Hungarian road users consider safe distancing important, many are unaware of the distance required to create the safety margin needed to avoid dangerous situations. Building on the findings of the research, Magyar Suzuki is launching its “Together on the Roads” road-safety campaign for the fifth consecutive year. This year’s central message is: “Keeping your distance is not a courtesy – it’s all about safety. A split second can make all the difference. Be prepared.”
