How can we ensure safety during travel?

Correct Answer

We can ensure safety during travel by following several important measures.

Sitting properly in our seats and not jumping around in moving vehicles helps prevent injuries. We should keep our hands and head inside the vehicle and never put them out of windows.

When walking on roads, we should walk carefully while watching vehicles in both directions. Holding hands of elders while crossing roads provides additional safety.

We must follow traffic rules and wear seat belts in cars. Being aware of our surroundings at all times is also essential.

Emergency services like ambulances and fire engines should be available at crowded places for immediate assistance.
