The courses consciously incorporate a very high level of visual content like photographs, films, graphics and animation for maximum impact. They are conducted with a high degree of interaction and participation of trainees and tackle all levels of literacy and understanding in all major Indian languages. An essential part of the program is that it emphasizes the vulnerability and limitations of a two-wheeler rider, as nearly 30% of road fatalities accounts for the two-wheeler category. We have two modules of Suraksha which are available for 1 day or 2 days, depending on how much time participants or organizations can spare in the specific vehicle category. Riding assessment, demonstration, rides and feedback/counselling are all optional parts of our training program. The course is designed for two-wheeler riders who already hold valid license for two-wheelers (motorcycles and scooters/MCWG). Each module is custom designed to meet the needs of specific user groups and could even include company specifics. Requirements for both, professional riders and individuals, who ride their own two wheelers, have been met in the training program. Many of India’s leading companies, several diplomatic missions and a variety of organizations ranging from NGOs to Government departments use these programs regularly to train their personnel in road safety and have reported a significant improvement in their safety records. We let our products be judged by the companies that use them.
