December 22^th, 2023    Fukuyama Transporting Co., Ltd. (Head office: Fukuyama City, Hiroshima Prefecture; President: Shigehiro Komaru) and Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Komaru Koutsu Foundation (Chief Director: Shigehiro Komaru) held a traffic safety class for 54 students of Hiroshima Prefectural Joge High School (Hiroshima Prefecture) on December 22nd, jointly with Hiroshima Prefectural Fuchu Police Station.

In response to the request from the school, we offered experiential learning to foster a deeper understanding of necessary traffic rules and manners when riding bicycles to prevent accidents during the winter breaks. The students had hands-on learning about danger prediction using drive recorder footage and a bicycle simulator. They commented on how this seminar helped them to raise awareness of traffic safety, saying, "By properly following bicycle traffic rules and manners, I would like to set a good example for the community.” To prevent and decrease the number of future traffic accidents among children, we will continue to promote traffic safety awareness in cooperation with police stations and local authorities.

Komaru Koutsu Foundation was established on September 9th, 2013, to promote traffic safety awareness, hosting various traffic safety lectures in schools across Japan and carrying out educational activities to prevent traffic accidents. Furthermore, the foundation supports the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by providing opportunities for students overseas studying Japanese to present the results of their studies and organizing Japanese composition speech contests to raise traffic safety awareness and promote cultural exchange with Japan.
