The World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims is dedicated to remembering the many millions of road traffic victims throughout the world. To celebrate the day, ATMA volunteers urged motorists to take a pledge for observing safety on the roads by putting their signatures on a wide panel.
“The event was held to sensitize motorists about the value of life. It was gratifying to note that a large number of people turned up for the pledge purely on a voluntary basis”, said Mr Rajiv Budhraja, Director General ATMA.
The World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims (WDR) is commemorated on the third Sunday of November each year.
The day is held to remember the many millions who have been killed and seriously injured on the world’s roads and to acknowledge the suffering of all affected victims, families and communities.
