At 5.30 pm on Friday, the police had posted notices about a total of seven traffic accidents during Friday in Sörmland.

- Yes, there are many accidents, says police spokesperson Åsa Willsund.

In three of the reported cases, people have been hit.

Also the unusual number in a short time.

- It's about the urban environment and about walking - and I have not heard anything about slipping played into the accidents.

There are probably more people than usual who cycle and walk in the dark.

Maybe you opt out of the bus like this in corona times, says Åsa Willsund.

She emphasizes that it is the motorists' responsibility if someone is hit.

But at the same time she has a call for pedestrians and cyclists.

- It is difficult to be seen in the dark.

Use reflectors or lights to avoid accidents.

None of the people who were hit in the Sörmland traffic on Friday have been seriously injured.

- No, the worst thing has been a concussion and scratch marks, says Åsa Willsund.
