As part of the **50 Years of Al Ansari Celebrations**, the management of Al Ansari Trading Enterprise LLC organized a **Road Safety Awareness Session** in collaboration with the **Royal Oman Police (ROP) Traffic Department**. This initiative aimed to reinforce the importance of road safety for drivers, pedestrians, and all road users in Oman.

The session was led by representatives from the **Royal Oman Police Traffic Department**, who emphasized the critical role every driver plays in ensuring road safety. They introduced the concept that every driver is effectively responsible for **five cars** at any given time—**the one they are driving, two on either side, one in front, and one behind**. This principle underscores the need for heightened awareness, defensive driving, and responsibility on the road.

### Key Highlights from the Session

#### 1. Dangers of Using Smartphones While Driving

The representatives strongly cautioned against using **smartphones while driving**, highlighting that **distracted driving is one of the leading causes of accidents** in Oman. The message was clear—**keeping your eyes on the road at all times is a fundamental responsibility of every driver**.

#### 2. Importance of Maintaining Safe Distance

Maintaining a **safe distance** from the vehicle in front is crucial to preventing accidents. The ROP officials advised drivers to always allow enough space for emergency braking, especially in congested traffic conditions.

#### 3. Road Safety During the Holy Month of Ramadan

A special segment of the session addressed **safe driving during Ramadan**. The speakers highlighted that **fatigue and drowsiness during fasting hours** can impair concentration and reaction time. They recommended that drivers ensure they are well-rested before getting behind the wheel, especially before **iftar** when fatigue is more pronounced.

#### 4. Seat Belt Awareness and Traffic Statistics

A compelling **video demonstration on seat belt safety** was shared, reinforcing the message that seat belts save lives. The ROP representatives also presented **traffic accident statistics**, showcasing how **road safety measures have significantly improved over the last decade** in Oman. Despite the increasing number of vehicles on the roads, accident rates have dropped due to **enhanced road infrastructure, stricter enforcement of traffic laws, and greater public awareness**.

### A Well-Acknowledged Initiative

The **employees of Al Ansari** highly appreciated this **insightful and educational session**. They expressed their gratitude to the **Royal Oman Police and Al Ansari Management** for organizing such an important awareness initiative. **Encouraging a culture of safety, discipline, and responsibility on the road remains a key priority for Al Ansari as part of its commitment to corporate social responsibility.**
