Road Traffic Accident Prevention, A common Man's Hippocratic Oath

I am sorry about the pictures and unfortunately this is the reality in India

These are the rules one can try to follow in India

Let us make an Oath

I will always wear a seat belt when I travel in a car

I will always wear a helmet when riding a bike

I will always walk on the opposite side of traffic so that the on coming vehicles can clearly see me

I will never cross the road in front of a moving vehicle,because

I will never trust the driver on the road

I remember using a vehicle is for comfort of travel and not to reach quickly

I will not travel at night unless it is an emergency

I will never drive in the opposite lane of a road

I will always use public transport where it is practical and not use my vehicle

I will never drive close to the vehicle ahead, equally

I will make sure the vehicle behind is not too close to me, because

I will always leave racing drivers to overtake me [get away from danger]

I will reduce the speed when there is traffic and vice versa.

More rules to follow

I will go through the traffic signs and teach more people and friends and families

please go to this web site which teaches more traffic signs for Indian Driving Conditions
