As mention in the preceding lesson, traffic safety education is one of the primary areas
of traffic education is particularly in the reduction and prevention of road accidents.
What is traffic Safety Education? It is the process of training roads users in avoidance
and prevention of traffic related accidents.
It is already identified that one if not the major causes of traffic accidents is human
factors which includes but not limited to ignorance, lack of skills, and/or erratic attitude
and behavior of drivers, pedestrians, passengers. This can be corrected by traffic safety
education.
Road Safety. It refers to reduced risk of accident or injury on the roads, achieve through
multidisciplinary approaches involving road engineering and traffic management,
education and training of road users, and vehicle design.
All these cycles are present at the time we are born. When the curve is
above the center line, the biorhythm value is said to be is “HIGH” or a
person has more energy to spare.
When the curve is below the center line, the boirhythm is said to be “LOW” or
in recharged period.
1. Physical low- we tend to tire quickly and to succumb to illness easily.
2. Emotionally low- we feel moody irritable, or depressed
3. Intellectual low-concentrating or remembering is difficult or we likely to
use poor judgement when any of the curved cross the center line. This is
called critical day wherein our systems seem to be in the state of
transition. During the critical day, people tend to get sick easily, seem to
lack coordination and tend to be accident prone.
J. Importance of biorhythm in the field of the study. It should be be borne in
mind that biorhythm does not predict the actual will happen. All it does is to
give us hint on how we will tend to feel in certain day.
1. The theory asserts that people are accident prone if their biorhythm
crosses the center ine or a certain day or is totally below the line.
2. Theoretically, if we know our biorhythm for a certain day, e can
psychologically cope up with any situation. If we usually overcome any
ill effect by awareness and will power.
This idea has been put into use in different countries in the world, and the
result helps reduce accident rates until it is totally refuted.
K. Safety Campaign. This is a mass publicity aimed to make road users behave
more safely. These basically focus on public information attitudes, and particular
or specific behaviors, or combinations of these.
