Travelling by foot:

Approximately 5,900 pedestrians are killed by automobiles every year ... 84,000 suffer nonfatal injuries. Almost one-third of these victims are children under the age of 15.

• Look on either side of the road before you cross.
• Use pedestrian crossings
• Avoid jaywalking
• Use footpaths

 

Automobile accidents claim thousands of lives each year. Reckless driving and drunken driving are most often the causes of automobile accidents.

• Make sure that all the components of your vehicle are in working condition
• Use a seat belt
• Respect the other drivers’ right of way
• Give pedestrians a chance
• Obey traffic signals
• Do not drink and drive
• Drive vehicles carefully. Some roads like Hosur road, old madras roads are accident-prone.
• Wear a helmet – every time you ride a two wheeler.
• Avoid self-drive when you are tired and not confident. Use public transport.
• Do not drive after a sleepless night. Chances of accidents are more.
• Start early enough for the meeting. Do not speed to catch up with time.
• Keep your identity card on you always – with blood group, local residential address, office address, contacts of a few friends. These information can get you help in case of emergency.
• Look above for the tree, while you park your vehicle – A (fall of) tree branch or coconut can be damaging.

Transportation of materials should be done with accurate care.

• Avoid overloading.
• A full charged fire extinguisher in good condition must be present in the vehicle at all times.
• Take care to see that the materials do not fall off the vehicle.
