„All drivers who have achieved these mileage milestones deserve our greatest recognition. Thank you for contributing to our company's good reputation through your long-term, responsible, and reliable performance of your demanding profession. A profession that they carry out with great professionalism under the increasingly challenging conditions of urban traffic,“ stated Zdeněk Abraham.
Participating in the "Accident-Free Ride" competition signifies countless days, services, and complex situations on city roads. Achieving such mileage in today's traffic is not just a matter of luck, but is backed by excellent knowledge of traffic regulations, adherence to safe driving principles, a good deal of driving skill, self-control, attention, foresight, dexterity, the ability to react quickly in unusual or crisis situations, and overall resilience to stress. All of these are recognized by this award.
The traffic situation, not only in Hradec Králové, is increasingly accompanied by, unfortunately, often growing aggressive behavior, inconsideration, and indiscipline from some other road users, including pedestrians. They often intentionally disregard traffic regulations or basic safety rules. „This makes us value these trouble-free kilometers even more. Our company is rightly proud of these awarded drivers,“ added the Chairman of the Board.
