According to the Far Eastern UGMS, ice phenomena are expected on the roads of Khabarovsk and the Khabarovsk Territory. In this regard, the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the Khabarovsk Territory recalls:
Drivers need to be especially attentive to the rules of the road, observe the speed limit. Drivers who did not have time to “change shoes” on the wheels of their car should refrain from traveling in private vehicles.
With ice, the number of street injuries significantly increases: bruises, dislocations and fractures. On such days, the number of victims can increase significantly.
Rescuers remind
To avoid injury, rescuers remind residents of simple rules, the observance of which will help prevent trouble:
Pay attention to your shoes: pick up non-slip shoes with microporous soles. It is better for fashionistas to give up high heels;
Look under your feet, try to bypass dangerous places. If it is impossible to get around the ice "puddle", then move along it, like a skier, in small sliding steps;
Be extremely careful on the roadway: take your time and, moreover, do not run;
Try to bypass all places with an inclined surface;
You should step on the entire sole, slightly relax your legs at the knees;
Hands should be as free as possible, try not to carry heavy bags, do not keep your hands in your pockets - this increases the likelihood of falling;
If you slip, crouch down to lower your fall. At the time of the fall, try to group and, rolling, soften the blow to the ground. Do not try to save things that you carry in your hands. Do not rush to get up, examine yourself for injuries, ask passers-by for help.
Remember: falling on your back, face up, is especially dangerous, as you can get a concussion. If you are injured, be sure to seek medical attention from a doctor.
How not to fall
There are many folk remedies for ice. From these tips, you can probably make a whole encyclopedia. Some of these "tricks" we remind our readers.
When walking in ice, you can use a piece of foam rubber (according to the size of the heel), which must be glued with adhesive tape before going outside. It is also recommended to stick a band-aid or duct tape on the
dry sole and heel (crosswise or ladder) and rub with sand before going out. For a day or two, such a design is enough.
Before going out, rub the soles of your boots with a cut raw potato. Now the shoes will not slip.
Another little trick is to put two rubber rings on the shoes from the instep to the heel part of the sole, which you can cut yourself from a bicycle inner tube, etc. And in any case, choose winter shoes with microporous soles or other soft bases.
Traumatologists recommend paying attention to the gait: you need to step on the entire sole, take your time, slightly relax your legs at the knees. Hands should not be occupied with bags (in winter it is better to carry bags over your shoulder). Older people should not be shy about picking up a cane with a rubber stop or, in extreme cases, prepare yourself a comfortable stick with a pointed end for the winter.
In order not to fall during ice, you can stick corrugated elastic bands from skis on the heels of your shoes.
To protect yourself from falling into ice, you can successfully apply a fairly simple method. Heels made from old felt boots are glued or nailed onto the heel and sole. And the best material for this purpose is not the shaft of the felt boot, but its sole.
Strips cut off from old boots and stuffed on the heel and on the sole will not allow the shoes to slip in icy conditions.
Leaving the house in slippery weather, you can put on collars on your heels, made of a steel strip 1-1.5 mm thick, 20 mm wide. A collar is put on in such a way that its edge protrudes 1-2 mm above the surface of the heel. Three tongues are made on the collar, which are bent onto the supporting surface of the heel. They securely hold the collar on the heel. Approaching the house, bend the ledges - and the clamp is removed without much effort.
In "slippery" weather, before going out, you can put on a heel bracket made of spring wire, repeating the outlines of the heel, and remove it before entering the room.
To prevent the boots from slipping in ice, you can put on them serrated arches made of metal one and a half to two millimeters thick.
Indoors, in order not to spoil the floors, the arms recline to the non-working position.
In order not to slip on the ice, you can glue pieces of waterproof cloth-based sandpaper to the soles and heels. Glued with waterproof glue, they will last for several days.
In order not to fall, slipping on ice, you can make spirals for the heel and soles of wire, which are easy to put on when necessary and just as easy to remove when they are no longer needed.
Chisinau, December 8, - AiF.MD. In Chisinau, 131 people have already suffered as a result of black ice since yesterday evening. 112 of them ended up in hospitals with injuries of varying severity. How to walk on ice without falling?
Black ice is dangerous for both people and cars, especially when the smooth slippery surface of the ice is sprinkled with a little snow. If you notice that it is slippery on the street, you need to go and look at your feet. Knowing a few techniques for proper walking, you can protect yourself from injuries and fractures.
During ice, try to walk slowly, do not keep your hands in your pockets, but balance them when moving. If you are carrying a bag, hang it over your shoulder. If possible, you need to choose the safest sections of the path and do not forget that there can also be ice under the snow. The foot on the ground must be placed completely on the entire sole and not strain the knees.
Elderly people are advised to use a cane with a rubber tip or a special stick with pointed spikes. If you slip, crouch down to lower your fall. In order to avoid fractures when falling, do not put your arm forward, try to keep your legs together.
Before crossing the road, it is best to wait once more for a car to pass, and not to run right in front of it, even if it seems to you that it is quite far away. Otherwise, you can fall and not have time to get up. In this case, you risk ending up in a hospital bed as a result of an accident.
Try not to wear high heels on ice. It is better to wear shoes with flat soles, preferably made of rubber, with treads that do not harden at low temperatures.
Regardless of what shoes you wear in winter, move in icy conditions as if you were wearing skis on your feet. It is advisable to step on the entire sole and not to raise your legs high when walking. If possible, it is better not to go, but to slide. If you have slippery shoes, then you can give it tenacity. There are several ways to do this.
Rubber prevention
The easiest option is to take the shoes to the nearest shoe shop and ask them to do "prevention from slipping." You will be glued to the soles and heels of a special rubber pad that will protect the shoes from ice.
medical plaster
You can buy a regular medical plaster, cut off small pieces from it and stick them on the sole. The patch prevents slipping well, but, unfortunately, it quickly gets wet and peels off. But it is impossible to predict how long the patch will last on the sole. As a rule, from several hours to two or three days. Therefore, it is a good idea to carry a supply of patch with you so that you can renew your stickers when you are away from home.
Felt
Anti-slip protection can also be made from old unnecessary boots. To do this, you need to cut off small pieces of felt from the bootleg and glue them with waterproof glue or Moment glue on the heels and soles. In order for the glue on the boots to dry completely, do not go outside in these shoes for a day. This method effectively prevents slipping, however, over time, the felt is erased.
Sandpaper
The soles of old boots can be rubbed with sandpaper - such prevention from slipping will ruin new shoes. In addition, this cardinal method will not be as effective as the previous ones, since with active wear, the sole of the boots is polished naturally and begins to slip. After a few days, the boots will have to be rubbed again.
ice access
If the ice is very strong, you can try special anti-slip pads on the sole - ice access. They are one size fits all, are sold in sports and hardware stores and provide reliable protection against falls.

1. Don't keep your hands in your pockets, use it for balance. And it would be nice to get a bag with a long “postman” belt in winter to free the limbs.
2. Bend your knees a little, lean forward a little and try not to strain at the same time (yes, we're not joking).
3. Take small sliding steps - with the whole foot, not with the toe.
4. Alternative option: stand tall and walk like a penguin. Seriously, there is such a technique. First you need to transfer the entire weight of the body to one leg, then, making sure that the foot is firmly on the ice, do the same with the other leg. Effective and enjoyable to watch.
65% of injuries that occur when falling on slippery streets are fractures and dislocations.
1. Try to regain your balance by swinging your arms. If all else fails, at least sit down lower so as not to fly down.
2. If you feel that you can’t cope with the ice, you can throw out a trick: push off a little to fly some distance parallel to the ice, this will soften the landing.
1. It is advisable to tighten the muscles. If this is not done, the bones will take the whole blow.
2. Try to group, at least - pull your head into your shoulders and press your arms bent at the elbows to the body. Ideally, you still need to manage to turn around in flight so as to land on your side - the damage will be much less.
3.
If you fall on your back, try to press your chin to your chest, and spread your arms out to the sides.
To take the skill of a safe fall to the level of a reflex, you can take a few private lessons from a martial arts coach.
1. Put your hands forward or try to lean on them, falling back (although reflexively always pulls to do just that). This is a sure way to earn serious wrist injuries.
You can't envy doctors from emergency rooms now - they have begun a hot season of bruises and fractures. And the reason for everything is ice, again the ZhEKs did not have time to prepare for the winter and illiterately chosen shoes.
The rules for choosing anti-slip shoes are quite simple:
No money for expensive high-quality shoes? We buy removable soles based on high-quality rubber
equipped with steel spikes. Not particularly elegant, but the risk of falling will be minimized. 
Another option - pads "anti-ice" in different versions
(hoops, chains, etc., worn on the soles). 
Properly prepared sole - successfully experienced winter.
What "grandmother's recipes" are used today to protect shoes from untimely slipping?
Also craftsmen rub the soles raw potatoes, sprinkle sand over freshly applied glue, glue sponges for washing dishes, etc. But such products are short-lived and do not differ in aesthetics. Therefore, it is better to immediately choose high-quality shoes, taking into account all the nuances of "anti-slip".
As soon as ice appears on the roads, we begin to move through the streets, as if with crystal vases in our hands (from a sideboard with family treasures). And it is right! You should not count the remaining bullfinches and study yourself in shop windows - look under your feet(the ice of mouthing does not forgive). 
Therefore, we remember Rules for competent movement in ice:
If you are not very careful, the recommendations fly out of your memory immediately after reading, and you will not remove the hairpins “never and for nothing”, then carry it with you in your purse a pair of cotton tights or stockings
- in the emergency room, they will come in handy. A stocking pulled under the cast will protect you from itching, skin irritation and the feeling of tight hairs.
Autumn days, when the night rain that passed the day before freezes on the pavement in the form of an ice crust in the morning, motorists jokingly call “tinsmith days”, and all because on such days the number of small accidents with dented fenders and broken bumpers increases significantly on city roads. However, these days can rightfully be called "the days of the traumatologist and radiologist", since the number of patients in trauma centers and X-ray rooms also increases significantly.
The coming winter brought new dangers - these are stairs uncleaned after a snowfall, the descent along which resembles the descent of a climber without insurance, and ice rinks powdered with snow. For schoolchildren, such skating rinks are great fun, making the way to school and home.
more fun, but for adults, ice hidden under the snow threatens with an unexpected fall and serious injury.
Nevertheless, it is in our power to protect ourselves from bruises, sprains and fractures in winter by following a few simple rules.
At the first sign of ice, put on winter shoes. The sole of such shoes should not be slippery. When choosing shoes in a store, pay attention to the material from which the sole is made, since it is he who primarily determines the ability to resist slipping, and not the tread pattern, as many believe.
The softer the sole material, the more stable the shoe. Rubber is considered the best material from this point of view, but it tends to wear out quickly. Polyurethane is also okay, but if the frost is very strong, then the sole will harden and become slippery.
Equally important is the thickness of the sole. If the sole is too thick, then the flexion of the foot during walking will be difficult, which will inevitably lead to a decrease in stability. If the sole is thin, then stability will increase, but with it the risk of cooling the feet will also increase, which, as you know, can provoke the development of colds.
Once in a slippery place, you should not think about the beauty of walking and how you look from the outside. If, nevertheless, such thoughts visit you, then imagine how you will look in a hospital bed with a plastered leg or arm.
You need to walk on the ice with small but confident steps, stepping on a slippery surface with your whole foot at once, and not rolling from heel to toe, as usually happens during normal walking.
Despite the fact that you are not going to fall, you still need to prepare for the fall, for which, group in advance in an appropriate way so that during the fall, tense muscles can protect bones, ligaments and internal organs from injury. If you are ready to fall mentally and physically, then there will be much more chances to get up healthy.
Most often, you don’t expect a fall, and everything happens almost instantly. There is no need to talk about making a decision in a split second, since all movements are carried out reflexively. However, it is in our power to form the right reflexes in ourselves, for which it is not a sin to visit the gym and practice falling on soft mats, or do it at home, laying something soft on the floor.
If you neglect such preparation, then it is unlikely that during the fall your arms and legs will be in the most advantageous position and you will only have to hope for a lucky chance.
Among the typical mistakes during a fall, the following can be distinguished:
There are many ways to maintain the integrity of body parts during a fall. Those who practiced judo or some other kind of martial arts know that the first training sessions are boring, but the coaches persistently try to teach them how to fall correctly, because in this case the outcome of the fight largely depends on the technique of falling.
In our case, precious health and full capacity for work are at stake, so the technique of falling becomes even more relevant.
Most often, a person falls in three known ways: forward, backward and sideways. In all cases, the first thing to do is to free your hands, throwing away what is in them. The discarded things will have a chance to fall into a soft snowdrift, and you will have a chance to land without serious consequences.
If you stumble and fall forward, then your task is to group in such a way as to avoid mistakes number one and number four. To do this, straighten your legs and put forward both arms, bent at the elbows and slightly tense. Spread your fingers and bend slightly so that the palm resembles a large spider. The fall should occur immediately on both hands, which will bend and soften the force of the blow, or even prevent the collision of the torso and the ground. The final position should be known from physical education lessons or from films about the army, lying down.
When falling back, you must, on the one hand, save your tailbone and spine, and on the other hand, protect your neck. To do this, tilt your head forward as much as possible, resting your chin on your chest. Close your teeth and do not try to scream, much less speak (there will be time for a strong word when you are on the ground), otherwise you risk biting your tongue hard.
Bend your legs at the knees to about a right angle and spread them apart.
Straighten your arms and spread them apart at an angle of forty-five degrees relative to the body, while palms with closed and straight fingers should look down.
Bend your back in an arc so that, if necessary, you can roll from your lower back to your shoulders and vice versa, thereby extinguishing the force of inertia.
With this method, your hands will be the first to receive the blow and will certainly soften it. In order for the shock absorption to be greater, you can hit the ground with your hands when you fall, but not too hard to knock your palms off.
In this case, you must prevent the fall on the elbow and straight arm. To do this, straighten your arm and stretch it forward, pointing your palm down. As with a backward fall, the arm must touch the ground first and along its entire length, resulting in a decrease in the force of the blow.
The leg should also take part in the cushioning, so bend it at the knee and take it to the side of the fall, trying to touch the ground with its entire side surface. The area of contact in this case will be larger and the energy of the fall will be distributed more evenly.
Tilt your head to your chest and in the direction opposite to the direction of the fall, as a result of which you will avoid hitting your temple and ear.
