* Safer Roads Safer India
Pledge *
ü I appreciate the value of life, and recognize the
power of serving as an example of safe driving. I therefore pledge to observe
Road Safety measures and Rules every time I travel.
I
pledge that,
ü I will be a
responsible driver, rider and
pedestrian.
ü I will not overtake, over speed, or give into road
rage and rash driving.
ü I will stop/slow down at signals and junctions so as
to give way to people crossing the street.
ü I will
observe the traffic
rules and regulations concerning safe driving
and safe use of the road so that there is no danger to my life or to the ones
around me.
ü I will always be alert and aware of my surroundings
while driving/crossing roads.
ü I will not drink and drive.
ü I will wear a helmet while riding a bike and put on
a seatbelt when in my car.
ü I will cross the
road,
at a zebra crossing wherever
available, and after looking left—then right—then left again.
ü I will maintain a roadworthy vehicle, and ensure I
use indicators, mirrors and lights appropriately at all times.
ü I will do all this even when there is no one
watching me.
ü My conscience will be my guide.
ü I hereby declare my commitment to the Safer Roads
pledge as set out above, to the best of my ability and will actively strive to
follow the rules and laws of the road.

to sharing this message with my colleagues, family members and friends –
