Under this; we’ve successfully stopped the broadcasting of number of TV Commercials which were promoting Wrong Road Users behavior by intervening with the concerned stakeholders. Rest of the States and UT’s are also being followed up.
• ‘180 Degree Visibility’ is an Advocacy Program of TRAX which promotes ‘Clear Visibility on Roads’ for Road Users as the inappropriate Vegetation on Road Lanes, Medians and Footpaths blocks the vision of Drivers and other Road Users hence responsible for Road Traffic Crashes.
