■What is danger prediction/accident avoidance training?
It is considered to be an effective method for preventing accidents in traffic safety education, and aims to prevent traffic accidents by predicting the dangers hidden in road traffic in advance and responding appropriately. By memorizing dangerous situations in a “safe” manner, you will be training your ability to predict. ■Additional release of “Bicycle Edition”
On May 17, 2024, the revised Road Traffic Act was passed and enacted. This amendment will significantly change the enforcement of bicycle traffic violations in the near future. As the number of violations and accidents involving bicycles is increasing, this time we have released an additional bicycle edition with the aim of recreating dangerous scenes on the road and raising awareness about preventing traffic violations and accidents.
