Road users must ensure safety of Iftar distributers
Manama : Director of Traffic Culture of the General Directorate of Traffic lauded the initiatives of a number of charity organisations of distributing fast-breaking (Iftar) meals among drivers. He said that such initiative reduces traffic accidents that are caused by over speeding or crossing red signals.
He said statistic analysis highlighted that many accidents occurred before Iftar. He called upon the distributors of those meals to follow safety conditions, such as the appropriate age of the distributors and full awareness of the changes in traffic flow. They have to wear light clothes and choose secure and open locations near junctions. The distributors should be divided into groups to regulate the distribution and each group should have a leader. The distributors should also coordinate with traffic patrols.
He said that the initiative represents dedication of Bahrainis to promote community partnership in limiting traffic accidents. He called upon all road users to be cautious to ensure the safety of the meal distributors. (MOI)
