Cyprus police conduct road safety educational campaigns in schools

On November 4 and 5, 2026, the Community Policing units of Paphos and Limassol organized a series of educational lectures across several schools to promote road and personal safety. The initiatives targeted students of various ages, ranging from kindergarteners to high schoolers. Key events included visits to the 2nd Geroskipou Kindergarten, the 10th Paphos Kindergarten, and the 4th Paphos Primary School, where officers discussed the police role and safe pedestrian practices through the "I walk safely in my school neighborhood" program.

On November 5, 2026, representatives from the Paphos Police Directorate held a dedicated lecture at the Giannakis Taliotis Lyceum in Geroskipou. The session focused on the consequences of irresponsible behavior on the road, the importance of adhering to the Highway Code, and the necessity of preventing accidents. During these sessions, students participated in practical demonstrations, including the proper use of seat belts, child car seats, and crosswalks. The primary objective of these ongoing educational efforts is to cultivate road safety awareness and responsible conduct among youth from an early age, emphasizing that compliance with traffic laws is a fundamental sign of respect for life and community safety.
