Implementation of Traffic Safety Class

There were many blind spots from the truck driver's seat, so we want to make sure we don't play around them.



November 26th, 2021    Fukuyama Transporting Co., Ltd. (Headquarter: Fukuyama City, Hiroshima Prefecture; President: Shigehiro Komaru; shortened as Fukuyama Transporting) and the Public Interest Incorporated Foundation, Komaru Koutsu Foundation (Chief Director: Shigehiro Komaru; shortened as the Komaru Koutsu Foundation) held a traffic safety class on trucks for 37 students at Kasaoka-shi Kounoshimasoto Junior High School in Okayama Prefecture on November 26.

In response to a request from a school that is willing to learn about the characteristics and dangers of large trucks, prevent traffic accidents, and raise awareness of traffic safety, the class used an actual truck to provide students with hands-on experience in preventing traffic accidents at intersections and crosswalks. The students commented, "There were many blind spots from the truck driver's seat, so we want to make sure we don't play around them?.

The Komaru Koutsu Foundation was founded on September 9th, 2013 in order to promote and raise traffic safety awareness, and has conducted traffic safety lectures at elementary schools nationwide and educational activities to prevent traffic accidents.

Overseas, it provides opportunities for students studying Japanese and presenting the results of their studies, and holds ?Japanese Composition Speech Contest? to raise awareness of traffic safety and to promote cultural exchange with Japan.
