उत्तर

Group A:
While riding a bike, the rider should wear a helmet. If there is a pillion rider, he/she should also wear a helmet. When the signal is yellow, one must stop the vehicle as a red signal will follow soon. Don’t ride or drive with breakneck speed. If somebody tries to cross the road suddenly, there could be a fatal accident. Before leaving the home, check the tire pressure, adequacy of petrol or diesel or electricity if it is an electric bike/scooter. Thus, you can ensure safety by adopting the above strategies.

Group B:
If you plan to travel by car, leave at least one hour early to avoid peak hour traffic. Wear a seat belt. Before overtaking ensure if the vehicle ahead of you wishes to take a ‘U’ turn or not. If you wish to take a right turn or a left turn using the indicator to warn the following vehicle of your intended change in the direction of travel. If you tend to travel near a school, don’t speed up, look on either side to verify if children are trying to cross the road. Don’t honk near hospitals and schools. If there is an unmanned level crossing, park your car 10 meters away from the level crossing, check for the movement of the train on either side. Even if the train is seen far away, wait for the train to pass by.
