FINDINGSLaws in place, but a lmost all of the demonstrable gains produced by changing road user behavior in high-income countries have resulted from traffic safety laws.However, laws themselves are not sufficient, the key factor in the effectiveness of a traffic law is motorist perception that theyhave a high risk of detection and punishment for violation of the law. In countries like India where perceptions are that such laws are not likely to be enforced, and difficult to enforce because of a large population. Level of compliance is less. Hence, TARGET: Changing behavior through self commitment.

OUR IDEA: PUBLIC CAMPAIGN

Peer Education

Values are first learned at home. The peer educators took safety education to the classroom in the Junior and senior school.

And later to the community at large, by educating students at a local village school.

SPECIAL ASSEMBLYInitiative 2: Begin the day with a lesson to learn.
