liiklejatest
Liiklejad refers to road users in Estonian. This broad term encompasses all individuals who are present on or utilize public roads, including drivers of vehicles, cyclists, motorcyclists, and pedestrians. The primary goal of traffic regulations is to ensure the safety and orderly movement of all liiklejad. Understanding the rights and responsibilities of each category of liikleja is crucial for preventing accidents and promoting smooth traffic flow. Drivers must adhere to speed limits, traffic signals, and give way to other road users when required. Cyclists and motorcyclists are expected to follow similar rules as vehicles, while also being mindful of their visibility to other liiklejad. Pedestrians, though typically the most vulnerable, have designated areas like sidewalks and crosswalks to use, and are also obligated to observe traffic signals and exercise caution when crossing roads. Effective communication and mutual respect among all liiklejad are fundamental to a safe and functional traffic environment.
