We
wish to inform you that this year the Society for Automotive Fitness
& Environment - SAFE (a SIAM initiative) is organizing its Annual
convention 2012 on 3rd May 2012 at Lucknow with the support from Ministry
of Road Transport and Highways, Transport Department, Government of
Uttar Pradesh and Traffic Police, Government of Uttar Pradesh.
The
theme of SAFE Convention is Path Towards Road Safety : Best Practices
and Intelligent Transport System covering the issues related to Road
Safety by adopting best practices by state governments and inclusion
of intelligent transport technologies on our roads.
In
our country many states have taken step forward by introducing new systems/
rules & regulations which will assist the transport and traffic
police department in reducing the fatalities on roads. For example stringent
driving licencing system, enforcement in traffic management etc.
In
all the developing countries ITS applications for traffic management
are in full development. There are high expectations of their road safety
effects. Theoretical analyses, simulation studies and small-scale
practical tests confirm that with the inclusion of Intelligent Transport
System we can increase safety on roads. A continuous collective effort
from all parties involved is essential if the development and implementation
of ITS are to stay on the right course.
This
year our objective to organize SAFE Annual Convention 2012 at Lucknow
is to spread knowledge on ITS and best practices implemented in the
area of safety with enforcement, infrastructure development, education
and vehicular safety. On 3rd May 2012, the programme will be inaugurated
by senior officials from Ministry of Road Transport & Highways,
New Delhi, Uttar Pradesh Transport Department and Uttar Pradesh Traffic
Police.
