Thousands of people die every day around the world due to diverse causes, many of which are inevitable. Unfortunately, people tend to forget that some are evitable, such as road accidents. If only more efforts are placed in campaigning and raising awareness of such tragedies by reforming the system, maybe thousands of lives could be saved daily. This is why ArriveSAFE’s mission appealed to me, since it is an issue that we often undermine or ignore, not realizing that there are solutions that in the long term will be beneficial to society as a whole. Therefore, road safety should become a priority at a national and international level. It is through NGO’s like this one that changes can be made, challenges faced, and little by little formidable outcomes achieved. |

Within one short moment lives can be changed forever from the tragedy of a road accident. My own experiences in Australia have seen too many drivers harmed or taken too soon by avoidable accidents. The impact on the victim and their loved ones is shattering, and often the result of an unnecessary risk or inexperienced decision. I have come to work with ArriveSAFE to help educate about safe road practices and the importance of correct behaviour on the roads. I believe that education can create positive action and a positive impact on society. This is a social issue that can change for the better, and through organisations like ArriveSAFE that seek to make a difference, this change will happen. |

Every day, thousands of people lose their life or get seriously injured due to road crashes. As world population grows, and so does traffic, rates will definitely increase if no action is undertaken.
By a change in our behaviour and consciousness, most crashes could be prevented, or at least their impacts could be reduced. Therefore we should address Road Safety as a global concern and work on a behavioural change altogether; by governments, business-environment and primarily ourselves as road users. |

"Road safety is an issue that concerns everyone; if you love your friends and family – you want them here to accompany you on this amazing journey that is LIFE. If just one mistake can claim a life – your own or someone else’s – then we have a responsibility to spread the message of the importance of road safety awareness. With over 3000 people dying on the roads in India every day, driving carelessly is like playing a deadly lottery. As huge a task as it seems to change this - a big change starts with one person… and during my time with ArriveSAFE I was lucky enough to witness others as they realized that we are passing a message on – not to preach, but because we care…" |

Every time when I drive a car or am just a passenger or even as a pedestrian I feel like jumping out with parachute because I don't know if I come back home alive. I am sure that most of the people feel the same. Unfortunately,for example, in Ukraine the number of the dead and injured in traffic accidents surpassed the Afghan and another wars death and injured. Road traffic system is a part of over life so we must to protect what we have received from God - health and life. ArriveSAFE is an organisation that works hard in the field to make our roads safe and spread the message of Road Safety amongst road users. |

Our globalizing world, the availability of technology and motorized vehicles for a larger segment of the population increases the need to work on road safety. As a Dutch citizen working in the field of International Relations I strongly support and believe in the fight of ArriveSAFE to decrease the number of road victims. A cause that is not only a human one as road safety accidents create a huge burden on society draining lives and several percentages of the GDP. Supporting and working on road safety improvements is a great experience which makes a human being realize the value of life and the ease of losing all. |

I am studying transportation systems in Ukraine. So, I can use my specialty to run business and make money. But I want to do something really useful for this society. Thanks to ArriveSAFE project I can apply my University knowledge and who knows perhaps save people lives. |

I have always believed that young death
is one of the worst tragedies in our world and I lost two of best friends
in a road crash. I have come from the US to work with ArriveSafe in India
because that crash shattered me. ""Nothing in the world has
ever been accomplished without passion", so together at ArriveSafe,
we will make a difference. |
