The General Directorate of Traffic has launched a new awareness campaign focused on ensuring student safety and promoting responsible transportation practices.
Targeting both students and bus drivers, the campaign underscores the importance of following safety regulations for a secure and comfortable journey.
Central to the initiative is an informative video released by the Directorate, which highlights the importance of hiring only licensed bus drivers for student transportation.
The video points out that licensed drivers provide essential insurance coverage for passengers, unlike their unlicensed counterparts who lack such protection.
Shared across the Directorate’s social media platforms, the video also offers crucial advice for students.
It emphasises the need for students to remain seated throughout the journey and avoid distracting the driver.
Additionally, the campaign calls on bus drivers to prioritise safety by complying with traffic regulations and ensuring regular vehicle maintenance to prevent breakdowns.
Through this campaign, the General Directorate of Traffic aims to enhance awareness among students, parents, and bus drivers, fostering a safer environment for all road users.
