STAY ALIVE. DRIVE 55

SPEED THRILLS BUT KILLS

Better be Mister Late than to be Late Mister

Feel the curves but don't hug them

Broken tools can be replaced. You can't

If you want to stay married, divorce speed

twinkle twinkle traffic light. blinking on the corner bright.

red means stop and green means go, yellow means to take it slow

Present Indian Road Scenario

About 1,20,000 people died in road accidents

About 5,00,000 people became permanently disabled

Revenue loss due to road accidents is about 55,000 th.crore rupees

Isn’t this a dangerous road condition?

Drive as if every child on the street were you own

Reasons of such scenario on Indian Roads

• Lack of organized Road Safety Education in the system.

• Improper attitude, behavior & lack of responsibility by road users on the road. ( I own the road )

• Lack of knowledge about driving discipline & safe driving skills

• Lack of proper monitoring system of Traffic Discipline by concerned authorities.

• Lack of knowledge & awareness about rules & regulations among people

Give a little time to Road Safety & get a lifetime of existence.

DO YOU

THIS IS ?

Defensive Driving Training for Commercial Drivers

Why ?

• Untrained in most cases

• Less educated & wrong attitude

• Trained by “ustad” and not by professional trainer

• Lack of knowledge of Traffic Rules & Regulations

• Poor standard of living – Lack of motivation

Wrong Attitude, Wrong Decision

Defensive Driving Training for Private Vehicle Drivers

Why ?

• Self taught two wheeler riding ( driving is my birth right )

• Similar for Car Driving in many cases ( I can handle )

• Wrong belief of being Safe Driver (others are worst)

• Do not like to refresh the knowledge of driving skill (ego)

• Lack of knowledge about Traffic Rules & Regulations

Do we drive or it happens?

Through such circular efforts, if we can reduce number of accidents onIndian roads, we can not only save revenue for the country but also livesof people and thus happiness of families and country.
