| Objective: The Road Safety Cell (RSC) based at the
Children Traffic Park, Sector 23-A serves as the nodal agency
for organizing & coordinating efforts of all Government, Social
& Corporate organizations in our community for spreading awareness
about Road Safety. It is widely recognized today that the internalization
of road rules and road discipline by the road users is a critical
prerequisite for ensuring safer roads and a smoother flow of
traffic. Inspired by the "Catch them Young" philosophy, the
RSC focuses its major activities on teaching our children, the
citizens of tomorrow, the fundamentals of road safety. The RSC
is also entrusted with certain allied activities like conducting
research on causes of road accidents, conducting the driving
test etc. |
