I was driving back home when all of a sudden I saw a student blowing whistle and waving me to stop the car. I lowered my window, the boy said, “Sir, you are driving without your safety belt on, please put on the belt for your safety.” I thought, how right and I quietly obliged.
That was yesterday, when NCC cadets of GovernmentHigherSecondary School, Ziro in association with the state police department took on the streets to observe the Road Safety Week to educate the motorists of this township about the road safety.
This made me wonder, shouldn’t we as a motorist understand our responsibility and drive safely following the traffic rule or should we be told of our duty to drive responsively?
