Road safety tips to avoid e-challans
and stay legal in Delhi

Following these basic rules goes a long way in preventing unfortunate road accidents. These small precautions protect not just your life but that of fellow drivers, riders, and pedestrians.

Stay in Your Lane

Always drive within the lane markings and avoid sudden lane changes. Stay in the leftmost lane unless overtaking. Use signals when changing lanes. This prevents accidents.

Road lines.svg

Maintain Safe Speeds

Adhere to speed limits at all times. These are set for safety reasons. Drive between 40-60 km/hr within city limits based on roads. Higher speeds risk lives. Slow down near schools and residential areas.

Speedometer_a97b9d1abc.svg

Follow Traffic Signs and Signals

Traffic signs and lights are placed strategically for flow management. Not stopping at red lights or following one way roads can lead to fatal crashes. Obey rules are used at intersections, U-turns, and no entry zones.

Avoid Distractions

Full focus must always be on the road. Refrain from mobile use, loud music or other distractions that shift attention. A few seconds of distraction can put multiple lives in danger.

Wear Seat Belts and Helmets

Seat belts minimise injury in case of collisions. Wearing helmets is compulsory for two wheeler riders. Both must be properly strapped to offer protection. Authorities frequently fine defaulters.

Avoid Drunk Driving

Consuming alcohol severely impairs motor functions and reaction time. Drunk driving can attract heavy fines plus imprisonment if it causes injuries or death. Be responsible and avoid driving if intoxicated.
