PASIGHAT, Jul 18: The Royal Siang Riders 515MC based at Pasighat organized a road safety awareness and free helmet distribution program on Tuesday in collaboration with the Traffic Cell of the Department of Transport and Highways, East Siang district. More than one hundred ISI certified helmets were distributed to random riders who were stopped by traffic police for violation of traffic rules and found riding without helmets.
As per the club the helmets were donated by various four wheeler and two wheeler dealers of Pasighat Township. Seeing many riders riding Motorcycle and Scooty's without helmet, the prominent Riders Club of Pasighat decided to organize the event with a hope to spread the fundamentals of basic traffic rules. "It pains me to see so many riders riding two wheelers without helmets, almost all the road accident related fatalities are caused by head injury and the only way to protect the riders is by wearing a helmet," said Jobomchang Mengu, the founder member of RSR-515 MC.a
