Traffic Rules Awareness Campaign Held at Dunlop More
Traffic rules awareness was the focus of a special programme organised at Dunlop More on Monday with the support of the Barrackpore Police Commissionerate and Dunlop Punjab Youth Club.
The initiative aimed to encourage motorists, particularly two-wheeler riders, to follow traffic regulations and adopt safer road practices.
Awareness Session on Road Safety
A discussion session on traffic rules and road safety awareness was organised at Dunlop More to educate commuters about the importance of responsible driving and compliance with traffic regulations.
During the programme, participants were urged to follow traffic rules consistently and take necessary precautions before beginning their journey. Special emphasis was placed on the importance of wearing helmets while riding two-wheelers.
Free Helmets Distributed to Two-Wheeler Riders
As part of the road safety initiative, free helmets were distributed to encourage two-wheeler riders to prioritise their safety.
Organisers appealed to riders to wear helmets before leaving home and to ensure that proper safety measures are followed throughout their journey. The initiative sought to reinforce the message that wearing a helmet is an essential part of responsible two-wheeler riding.
Officials Attend Road Safety Programme
The programme was attended by DCP Traffic Rajnarayan Mukhopadhyay, Baranagar MLA Sajal Ghosh, and Surjit Singh, convenor of the organising body.
The presence of police officials and public representatives highlighted the importance of coordinated efforts to promote road safety and increase awareness among commuters.
Message to Two-Wheeler Riders
During the event, two-wheeler riders were specifically requested to make helmet use a routine practice. Riders were encouraged to wear helmets before setting out from home rather than treating them as an optional safety measure.
The organisers also urged motorists to respect traffic signals, follow prescribed road rules and drive responsibly to help reduce the risk of accidents.
Focus on Responsible Road Use
The traffic rules awareness programme at Dunlop More was aimed at creating greater awareness among the public about safe and disciplined road use. Organisers stressed that road safety is a shared responsibility and requires cooperation from motorists, pedestrians and other road users.
Such awareness initiatives can play an important role in encouraging people to follow traffic regulations and adopt safer habits while travelling.
The programme concluded with an appeal to commuters to make traffic rule compliance, helmet use and road safety an integral part of their daily journeys.
