Today (October 16, 2026), police officers from the traffic safety police stations in Kočani, Delčevo, and Berovo conducted preventive activities at various locations in the central urban area under the slogans "If you drink, don't drive" and "Don't use your mobile phone while driving." Drivers were informed about the consequences that may arise if they use a mobile phone while driving, as well as the penalties for such offenses, with a particular emphasis on the awareness among drivers not to operate vehicles under the influence of alcohol, given that alcohol severely impairs driving skills, disrupts psychomotor abilities, and poses a serious threat to their safety and that of other road users. The Prevention Department of the Skopje Police Department also carried out a traffic-related preventive activity in the area of the Čair Police Station, where, in collaboration with the National Council for Road Safety, drivers were directly communicated with about the necessity of fully adhering to traffic rules and regulations, with a special focus on obeying speed limits, and they were informed about the functioning of "Safe City."
The Prevention Department of the Skopje Police Department conducted an educational lecture at the "Stiv Naumov" Primary School, in the area of the Gazi Baba Police Station, focusing on protection against peer and cyber violence and the prevention of addictions. Students were introduced to the various forms of bullying behavior, the manifestations of these deviant phenomena, and the potential consequences that may arise in different forms. In this context, students were also clarified on the methods and strategies for timely prevention and dealing with this type of deviant behavior among youth. Additionally, students were made aware of the harmful consequences, as well as the ways to prevent addictions such as drugs, cigarettes, alcohol, and gambling.
