Fukuyama Transporting Co., Ltd. (Head office: Fukuyama City, Hiroshima Prefecture; Chairman: Shigehiro Komaru) and the Komaru Koutsu Foundation (Chief Director: Shigehiro Komaru) held a traffic safety class for 117 first graders of Fuchu Municipal Dai-ichi Junior High School in Hiroshima Prefecture on December 5.
Held at the school’s request, we offered experiential learning aimed at helping them grasp essential traffic rules and proper biking etiquette. Through practical exercises such as analyzing dashcam footage and using a bicycle simulator, students enhanced their hazard perception and awareness of traffic risks. As a result, students became more aware of safety measures and expressed their willingness to follow bicycle traffic rules and manners when riding.
We are committed to continuing our efforts to prevent and decrease the number of future traffic accidents among children by engaging in traffic safety education and raising awareness in cooperation with police stations and local authorities.
The Komaru Koutsu Foundation was founded on September 9th, 2013, to promote traffic safety and prevent accidents. The foundation conducts various traffic safety lectures in schools throughout Japan and engages in educational activities to promote road safety. Additionally, the foundation supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by providing opportunities for students studying Japanese overseas to present the results of their studies. They also organize Japanese composition speech contests to raise traffic safety awareness and encourage cultural exchange with Japan.
