Educates over 2 lac people of Hyderabad on importance of Road Safety
HYDERABAD, APRIL 15, 2024: Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India celebrated a significant milestone as it commemorated the 9th anniversary of the Traffic Training Park in Hyderabad in the august presence of Mr. G Harish (Inspector of traffic police Hyderabad and in charge of Traffic Training Institute, Hyderabad). Since its inception, the park has played a pivotal role in promoting road safety and enhancing traffic awareness among citizens.
In 2015, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) in association with Hyderabad Traffic Police inaugurated the traffic training park in Hyderabad. Situated in the heart of the city, the Traffic Training Park has served as a beacon of education and practical training for participants. Its state-of-the-art facilities and interactive programs have empowered countless individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary for responsible and safe road behaviour.
Since the inception of the Traffic Training Park in the city of Hyderabad, nearly 2 lac people across all age groups have been trained to enhance road safety awareness in the city.
The 9th anniversary celebration was a testament to the park’s enduring impact on the community. Dignitaries, government officials, and representatives from HMSI gathered to mark the occasion and reflect on the park’s accomplishment over the years. The event featured engaging activities covering students of all age groups such as Bicycle Riding Activity, Snake and Ladder, Stop-Look-Go, Safety Gear Awareness and Road Sign Matching games aimed at reinforcing the importance of road safety. The event witnessed engagement of around 25 students from St. Paul’s High-Tech school. Participants also had the opportunity to experience first-hand the various amenities offered by the park, including simulated road circuits, traffic signboards and virtual driving simulations.
Mr. G Harish (Inspector of traffic police in charge of Traffic Training Institute, Hyderabad) shared his valuable insights on road safety to the students by highlighting the importance of a proper driving licence before one starts their driving journey and about the relevance of cultivating the habit of following traffic rules at a very young age.
As HMSI looks ahead to the future, it remains dedicated to further expanding the reach and impact of its Traffic Training Park in Hyderabad and beyond. Through continues collaboration with stakeholders and the community, the company aims to cultivate a culture of responsible road behaviour and ensure safer roads for generations to come.
