The Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer also conducted various road safety games for the adult visitors. The riders with age of above 16 years were given a chance to experience more than 100 possible dangers on road. Honda claims, this virtual experience will increase the rider’s ability to predict and react to the real life traffic hazards.

India is a country with high rate of road accidents happening every year. A large number of accidents involve the two-wheelers. In most cases, the riders are found without basic safety precautions like a helmet. Despite numerous awareness campaigns and implementing stricter rule, many riders don’t use the helmet, which ultimately make themselves vulnerable to life threatening injuries.
