How to stay safe on the platform!
The train is the safest means of transportation in Austria. Nevertheless, many people have accidents on railway tracks every year due to ignorance and carelessness. Here you can find out which rules must be observed on railroad facilities to prevent dangerous situations from arising in the first place!
Railroad stations are not playgrounds, there are rules that must be observed here too. For example, the yellow/white safety line marks the area up to which you can move on the platform. If you stand too close to the tracks, you may be pushed onto the rails in the crowd.
Even if you listen to music on the platform, make phone calls, write messages on your cell phone or even skateboard illegally, you are distracted and endanger yourself and possibly others. That's why scooters, skateboards, bicycles and other sports equipment are not allowed at the station. They must not be used!
Safety tips for the platform
- Always wait behind the safety line!
- Only when the train has come to a standstill and is ready for boarding and alighting may you cross the safety line!
- Also pay attention to the loudspeaker announcement: "Attention! Train is passing through!
- Crowds, strong winds or the draft of passing trains can set objects in motion or knock them over!
- Hold on to your objects!
- Supervise trolleys, luggage or baby carriages at all times!
Take care of yourself!
