The economic, social and health losses that result every year from road traffic injuries are not inevitable. Such accidents can easily be prevented if every law abiding citizen strictly follow the rules laid down for their safety by the traffic departments. Hence, to mark the beginning of the new year, it extremely essential that we become more aware and educated about traffic rules and regulations.”
