Kpop Star After School’s Safe Driving School – Korean Transportation Safety Authority


 

Everyone knows that driving carelessly is very dangerous. Over these years, there are lots of people killed during vehicle accidents. The number of vehicle accidents is increasing during the past years. Ironically, the increasing number sis also caused by the increasing technology. Thanks to cell phone, ext message service, and calling system, people are given the freedom and flexibility to make call or to send texts anywhere they want to. But when they’re doing that while driving, they’re not only endangering their own lives but also other people.

 

That’s why there’s a campaign of save driving by After School. These girls are chosen to be the ambassador for save driving. They received the responsibility from collaborative work of Inkigayo from SBS and the Korean Transportation Safety Authority that want to make interesting campaign of safe driving as well as the environment protection. Through the “Traffic Safety Song” the girls are making fun but full of aware songs about save driving. They’re so determined of the importance of the campaign’s message that they even create their own choreography, which can be seen from their music video. The song was only recorded by six girls, while the 3 others – Lizzy, Jooyeon, and Bekah – are not included. However, the new member – Yiyoung – is there in the music video.

Drivers will celebrate Christmas with free soft drinks

 Drivers will celebrate Christmas with free soft drinksIn order to reduce the number of car accidents caused by drinking during Christmas, THINK! (road safety group) and Coca-Cola will offer free soft drinks to designated drivers in Britain. The drivers can receive their soft drinks in more than 8,000 nightclubs and pubs.

The message of this campaign is simple: don’t drink while driving. Drinking can take lives because it makes the drinker not alert. Alcohol reduces people ability to react even when it seems to them they are more alert because of it.

According to Mike Penning, Road Safety Minister, there are 380 people killed in car accidents last year because the driver was drinking. Jon Woods of Coca-Cola hopes that by offering free soft drinks to drivers, it can inspire them to do the positive and not to take alcohol to excess, especially while driving. He adds that this Christmas should be a time fun, not a nightmare.
