The World Cup begins in a week and will bring its share of explosions of joy – and therefore noise – depending on the victories of the nations represented. With one particularity: as the World Cup takes place on the American continent, certain matches will take place at times usually dedicated to sleep. The Vaudois law enforcement agencies are therefore announcing the rules this Thursday. For car trips, you should not honk your horn for too long. And not at night.
The Vaud cantonal police and the cantonal municipal police thus indicate that they will not “favor vehicle processions. With the aim of guaranteeing the flow of traffic as well as the safety of users.
However, as long as horn honkers “do not excessively disrupt traffic and public order”, they will be tolerated “for a period of 60 minutes from the end of the meetings”.
For the night? “During these time slots, the police invite supporters to celebrate discreetly, respecting the nighttime rest prevailing from 10 p.m..”
The police also warn that serious misconduct will be reported, for example non-compliance with speed limits, light signals, priorities and pedestrian safety.
Please, in short, to express your jubilation, with respect and tolerance, “by respecting the road traffic rules and to exercise caution so that the party remains beautiful until the end of the competition”.
