''OBEY TRAFFIC RULES''

Traffic laws are the laws which govern traffic and regulate vehicles, while rules of the road are both the laws and the informal rules that may have developed over time to facilitate the orderly and timely flow of traffic.

Traffic rules that we follow daily while commuting from one place to another, help us reach our destination safely. Some of the most common traffic rules that one should follow while using the road and their significance are described below-

1) Driving With a Valid Driving License

If you are driving with a valid driving license, you have probably reached the permissible age limit to drive. Also, you must have undergone the necessary training provided about road safety rules and regulations by the licensing authority; making you a responsible driver behind the wheels.

2) Keeping Left

This is another significant rule obeyed while daily commuting. You must keep left of the road while leaving or entering, to make way for the approaching vehicles, already at high speed on the road. You must also keep left to make way for an emergency or other vehicle coming from behind at high speed. This way you ensure that both reach their destinations safely.

3) Never Approach a Road From Wrong Side

Approaching a road suddenly from wrong side might have fatal consequences. A wrong and sudden approach might surprise the other drivers/riders, resulting in confusion and collision. It’s advised to look for any approaching vehicle on the main road and in case they seem far, approach the road slowly, keeping left always.

4) Always Wearing Safety Gears

A driver must wear all the safety equipments required for the vehicle. Wearing a seat belt or a helmet could be all the difference between life and death. General conception that safety gears are not required while city commuting is a myth. Either on city roads or highways, safety belts and helmets have proven their mettle in saving lives.

5) Following Traffic Signals

A junction or a roads intersection is the most critical point that an everyday commuter has to pass through many times in a day. It is difficult to judge which way the vehicle coming from front will turn or to see any approaching vehicle from either left or right. Continuing blindly on a junction might have fatal consequences. Always follow the traffic rules or the signals of the policeman, who alternates the movement, ensuring safe transit for all.

6) Waiting For The Pedestrians

On foot pedestrians are the most vulnerable users of the roads. They depend on other drivers for their own safety. A negligent driver could hit an unsuspecting pedestrian, crossing the road or waiting for a bus to arrive. While daily commuting one should always make way for the pedestrians at zebra crossings or other spots, and ensure safe transit for all.

7) Don’t Drink and Drive

A Drunken driver not only risks his own life but also the lives of other road users. Drinking hampers one’s ability to make decisions and foresee the consequences. The drivers get negligent and over speed compromising the safety of their own as well as others. Either for daily commuting or for sometimes, drunken driving must be strictly prohibited.
