SAFETY DRIVE
by - SEHAJ GHUMAN
Scars of Accidents don’t heal easily, sometimes they last a lifetime. Accidents hurt a lot but Safety doesn’t…..
By following the traffic rules, there is no jeopardy.
Persisting with the noble endeavor of removing the economic divide, for the underprivileged, Ms. Puniita Singh organized a seminar for the students of Government Middle School, Sec-52 Kajeri educating them about the traffic rules. A group of 160 students reached the Traffic park, Sec-23, with transport facilities organized by the NGO – SAATHI.
Ranbir Singh, an official at the Traffic Park gave an informative and interactive lecture, followed by awareness videos directed by Mr.Jaspal Bhatti. Mr. Ranbir stated, “The initiative of educating these children about the traffic rules is admirable. It is imperative for the young children to know all the traffic rules, as the number of accidents taking place in Chandigarh is on the increase. Tools and machinery can be repaired but our lives cannot.”
The children gave an eager response and appreciated the NGO’s efforts. They were given souvenirs, which would remind them of the safety rules.
Inspector Prem Singh Dalal, said, “Hope that Saathi keeps carrying on the great work. Youngsters are the most likely victims of the accidents, they don’t wear helmets or seat belts which cost them their lives .After today, I hope these students will follow the Traffic rules.”
So, when you drive safely, you arrive safely.
Better late than never….
