The Impressive TimesNew Delhi : Delhi Traffic Police, in collaboration with the PRO, Delhi Police, and the Directorate of Education, GNCTD, organised a Mega Road Safety Awareness Event on 08 May 2026 at the Delhi Police Headquarters with the objective of promoting road safety awareness and responsible road behaviour among school students.
As part of the initiative, the Road Safety Cell of Delhi Traffic Police conducted a Mega Road Safety Awareness Programme at Adarsh Auditorium, Delhi Police Headquarters. The programme was live-streamed on YouTube, enabling nearly one lakh students from schools across Delhi to participate virtually and benefit from the awareness session. In addition, around 400 students from various schools physically attended the programme with great enthusiasm.
During the event, officers and experts from Delhi Traffic Police delivered detailed presentations and conducted interactive sessions on various aspects of road safety. Students were sensitized to the importance of following traffic rules and maintaining road discipline, pedestrian and cyclist safety, the proper use of helmets and seat belts, the dangers of over-speeding and distracted driving, safe commuting practices for school students, and responsible road behaviour. Awareness was also created regarding emergency response measures and basic precautions to be followed during road accidents and emergencies.
To make the programme more engaging and impactful, educational films and audio-visual presentations were screened during the session. The students actively participated in the interactions and showed keen interest in learning safe road practices and traffic discipline. The initiative aimed to inculcate road safety consciousness among children from an early age so that they become responsible and aware road users in the future.
The event was attended by senior officers of Delhi Traffic Police, reflecting the organization’s continued commitment to effective traffic management, public safety, and road safety education. In continuation of this initiative, a Summer Camp will also be organised at all four Traffic Training Parks from 18 May 2026 to 05 June 2026 in three batches. The camp will focus not only on road safety and traffic rules but also on self-defense, cyber safety, first aid, CPR, gender sensitization, and several other educational and awareness-oriented activities. Various competitions and interactive sessions will also be conducted to encourage active participation and learning among students.
