German Road Safety - App

Product submission URL (https://)

Product description

The multilingual and free App for Apple iOS and Android imparts the most important traffic rules in a vivid way. The German Road Safety App places emphasis on easy-to-read texts in combination with moving images to make the user experience as pleasant as possible and to facilitate listening and processing of the contents included in the seven chapters. Numerous animations with voice output illustrate typical situations in road transport and provide valuable information and hints for safe behaviour. The intention of the App is to point to hazards and difficulties in road traffic. However, this is not done in a negative or scaring way – the App rather wishes to encourage the target group to become mobile. Still, the App cannot and is not designed to replace a "driving test". The information provided by the App was deliberately kept simple and aims at giving guidance in key areas. The App is available in German, English and Arabic. Further language versions are already in the pipeline. For an online version of the App please visit www.germanroadsafety.de.

Aims and objectives

Many traffic rules are new for persons arriving in Germany and certain situations in road transport are different from those in their home countries. How does local transport work? Where am I allowed to ride my bike? And who has right of way? The German Road Safety Smartphone App gives answers to these and many other questions. The App is free, available in several languages and was developed by the German Road Safety Council (Deutscher Verkehrssicherheitsrat, DVR) with the support of the German Social Accident Insurance Institution (Deutsche Gesetzliche Unfallversicherung, DGUV). The objective is to make refugees – and other persons as well – become acquainted with the most important traffic signs so that they are able to apply the basic traffic rules and to use streets, cycle lanes and footways more safely.

Entrepreneurs, supervisors, experts in occupational safety and health protection in the field of intralogistics (in-company goods handling)
