About the project

The project trains drivers with necessary rules and regulations that are important for a smooth driving experience for them and their customers. It is important for drivers to know beyond the basics. The programme not only aims at teaching them about the traffic rules, but also aiding them with their language skills. The programme covers truck drivers, cabs drivers, auto-rickshaw drivers etc. 

​

The topics covered in the training are traffic signs and symbols, must know traffic rules, speed limits, important documents one must carry while driving (especially for commercial vehicles) etc. For language skills, basic English language words like thank-you, sorry, please, etc. and their usage is taught for them to better converse with a diverse set of customers.

Why is it important

This program increases their general awareness and the overall customer satisfaction thereby increasing chances of a higher tariff and return of the customer. It is aimed at simplifying the lives of our drivers. Moreover, with an increase in the number of road accidents, road safety has become a major concern in the country. We believe the importance of this project is brought out by a single look at the annual statistics of the country in road accidents - the country reported over 1,51,000 fatalities due to road accidents. The importance of drivers training program increases in such a scenario. To equip our drivers with the basics is to avoid accidents in future. Prevention is better than cure. Our drivers' training program is also holistic in the sense that it doesn't limit itself to educating drivers on traffic rules but also allows cab services in India to be comprehensively improved by training them in inter-personal and language skills.
