KANPUR: Road discipline ensures smooth and safe movement of traffic. The traffic cops visited Sir Padampat Singhania Education Centre on Thursday as part of the ongoing traffic month and apprised students about traffic laws.
The students from classes 6 to 12 witnessed the demonstration given by cops on safe driving in the school playground between 11 and 12.30 pm. SP traffic RP Gautam and CO traffic Surendranath Tewari emphasised on collective responsibility of the citizens on road safety.
Gautam said that the need of the hour is to cope with the increasing number of road accidents. The main reasons of fatal accidents are the poor condition of roads, vehicles or the mental state of the driver. He said that the parents are responsible for encouraging the under-age driving. The SP warned the students that action will be taken against the ones who violate the traffic rules.
Later, traffic cops Afaq Ahmed and Hari Shanker Verma gave a demonstration on safe driving. Ahmed emphasised that all persons should wear the seat belts while sitting in the car. One must wear a helmet while driving a two-wheeler and avoid use of a mobile phone.
CO traffic Surendranath Tiwari told the students about the aim of traffic awareness. He asked the students to read the pamphlets on safety rules. The CO said that overspeeding and breaking the law can be a thrill for sometime but ultimately a big loss for the family.
Class IX students were shown video on traffic rules and regulations.
Principal Reeta Midha advised the students to abide by traffic rules.
