Important Traffic Rules To Follow To Ensure Safety While Driving

Road safety rules in India are designed in the best interest of vehicle owners. You may follow the below-mentioned ten rules and regulations while driving to reduce the risk of accidents and ensure safe driving.

Always wear a seatbelt 

The most important rule is to always strap on a seatbelt when you hit the wheel. Section 138 (3) CMVR 177 MVA of the Motor Vehicles Act lays down the specific fine for not fastening a seatbelt.

 Avoid distractions 

While you are behind the wheel, ensure that your main focus is on driving. Do not get distracted by loud music or by talking on the phone while driving. 

Do not cross the speed limit 

The goal of setting a speed limit is to ensure the safety of passengers in the vehicle as well as pedestrians. Besides, driving at high speed, even on roads with less traffic, may result in the driver losing control or a sudden brake failure, thereby causing an accident. 

Service your car regularly 

Maintaining your car regularly is vital. Repair worn tires, fix your broken headlights, fix your side mirrors, and replace your engine oil as failing to do so may result in accidents. 

Follow traffic signals 

Failing to follow traffic signals may result in accidents. This, in turn, may lead to damage to the vehicle, bodily injuries, and even death. To financially protect yourself against such an incident, you may purchase a vehicle insurance policy. 

Maintain lane discipline 

Considering the soaring traffic on Indian roads, following lane discipline is extremely crucial. Never overtake a car by changing lanes on a busy road. Even if you do change lanes, remember to give a signal. 

Be careful during bad weather 

It is necessary to take utmost care while driving during bad weather. For example, the roads may become foggy during winter. So ensure you have your fog lights on while driving. 

Maintain a safe distance 

Maintaining a safe distance will give you enough time to react in case the vehicle ahead makes a sudden stop. This reduces the chance of a collision and ensures the safety of passengers. 

Overtake from the right 

India follows the right-hand drive. Hence, always remember to overtake from the right side. 

Give way for emergency vehicles 

As a driver, it becomes your responsibility to make way for emergency vehicles. You may, therefore, move your vehicle to the side in case an ambulance or a fire brigade was to cross.

Though you may take optimum care while on the road, the risk of an accident cannot be eliminated. Hence, investing in a motor insurance plan is highly recommended. You may further enhance your coverage by opting for a comprehensive car/motor insurance plan. Such a policy offers coverage for most accidental damages. Apart from just owning an insurance plan, make sure you renew your car insurance on time before the expiry of your existing insurance policy. Secure your car with Kotak Car Secure.
