In Cagliari , in view of New Year's Eve , the Police Headquarters' security plan has been activated, with control services planned both in the city and along the main connecting roads. Today, at the Police Headquarters, the details of the operation were illustrated and useful advice was provided for celebrating safely. In particular, the Highway Police will intensify the presence of patrols on the roads.

"We will be present along the main extra-urban connecting roads - confirmed the director of the Cagliari traffic police, Catia Paganelli - we want to provide some advice to motorists: check the condition of the vehicle and tires before driving, respect the speed limits and adjust it to traffic and weather conditions. Always wear seat belts and use devices even for minors". The ban on driving while drunk or under the influence of drugs is still valid. And then: "Do not use your cell phone - the director continued - it is one of the major causes of accidents and distraction. I invite everyone to be prudent, to observe the rules and to be responsible".

Marco Mele, inspector commander of the Police bomb squad, instead provided advice for the correct use of New Year's Eve firecrackers, to be used only if "legal and purchased in authorized shops". It is important to read the instructions first and move away after lighting them". In reference to children and minors: "They must always be followed - Mele highlighted - never relight an unexploded firecracker, in the past years accidents have occurred for this very reason".
