FM cluster head marketing (UP) Chandan Kapoor said, "It has always been Big
FM's endeavour to ensure that we positively impact people's lives and this initiative
is an extension of the same. The Traffic Month has two different motives - firstly,
to spread awareness about road safety rules and legal laws and secondly to educate
school children about road safety issues related to overloaded auto-rickshaws,
general rules for school buses etc. I am grateful to the Traffic Police Department
for their support and am confident that together, we will be able to make a difference."
 SP
traffic Kanpur RL Varma said, "Traffic conditions in the city need to be
improved. The reason this far was that people in city were either ignorant about
the traffic rules or didn't care to abide by them. In this month long activity
we will try to make people responsive, aware and finally responsible towards traffic
laws. Our idea is to educate people that traffic laws are for their own benefit
in a manner which appeals to them emotionally. Radio Stations are extremely effective
to communicate this message, given its high penetration in the city and we are
happy that a corporate like Big FM has come forward for this month long initiative."
