    Road traffic awareness is extremely important, especially in rural areas. Highways passing through villages are more vulnerable to accidents due to a lack of road safety awareness. People must be careful about where they park their vehicles, how they take turns or U-turns, and avoid stopping on the road to talk to someone or pick up passengers. Over-speeding and unsafe overtaking are also major causes of accidents and should be strictly avoided.
