Энциклопедия безопасности. Правила поведения на льду

Ice on bodies of water is a high-risk area. Taking a shortcut home, catching a big catch, or taking a walk or skating on a body of water are just a few of the reasons why tragedies occur every year. Early spring ice is especially treacherous, because as the weather warms, it becomes porous and loose, but still appears as strong as it was during the January frosts. It cannot support the weight of a person, meaning anyone who finds themselves on the surface of a body of water is exposed to imminent danger. But accidents can be avoided by following safety rules and precautions. In the new issue of the "Safety Encyclopedia" project, you'll learn how to behave on a frozen body of water without risking your health and life, and what to do if an emergency occurs.
