Event on road safety

In observance of the United Nations World Day of Remembrance for Traffic Victims, Safety Alliance For Everyone (SAFE), a society dedicated to road safety, organised an event centered on this year’s theme, “That Day”.

Rupinder Singh, Chairman of SAFE, opened the event with a message on the preventability of traffic crashes. He emphasised that “speeding” is one of the most significant contributors to traffic crashes. The event provided a poignant platform for several family members of victims to share their personal stories of loss and remembrance. SAFE executive member Rakesh Sharma urged the media to use the term “crash” instead of “accident”, emphasising that such incidents are not accidental but causative and preventable.
