Awaring people on road safety is a praiseworthy step of Hoshiarpur Police

Hoshiarpur Police celebrated Road Safety Week from 11th January to 17th January and awared people about the road safety norms and traffic rules. Even many other praiseworthy steps have been taken to prevent accidents, post accident management and helping the citizens during any inconvenience on road, like tyre puncture or vehicle failure. Hoshiarpur Police is going to launch Helplines for ambulances and vehicle mechanics shortly. Traffic committees have been formed in the educational institutions comprising of teachers and students who would look up the traffic system in the institution and outside the institution. Same formula has been applied for the workers of the factories in the district.
These all steps are welcoming steps for the road safety only if these steps are applied practically on the grass root level.
On the other hand, all these steps taken are incomplete without the involvement of Transport department that issue driving licenses and pass the motor vehicles. It is the ground reality that the driving test of applicants for driving test is not conducted by the Motor Vehicle Inspector and he signs the forms and the applicant is issued the license. Till the right procedure of issuing the driving license is not followed, road safety awareness does not have any importance. The applicants of license should be taught about the traffic rules and road safety norms in special compulsory classes before issuing the license then the awareness becomes a continuous process.
