Study examines road safety
About 60 high school and university students experimented with an interactive tool for learning about road safety at Phnom Penh’s Cambodia-Japan Cooperation Center on March 18, as part of an ongoing study by the Honda Foundation’s International Association of Traffic and Safety Sciences. The study, which will be completed in April 2018, will assess Cambodian road safety issues and offer potential solutions, especially in regards to education aimed at improving road literacy. About 20 students at this weekend’s seminar contributed footage of their daily commutes. Ear Chariya, founding director of the Institute for Road Safety, said students were invited to identify dangerous behaviour and discuss potential remedies.
