The Bangalore city traffic police have gone a step ahead in spreading the message on traffic awareness. Now, anyone visiting a cinema hall for a movie, will first watch a two minute promo video on road accidents before watching the movie. ACP (Traffic and Security) Praveen Sood told MiD DAY, u00e2u20acu0153The two minute video is very interesting and eye catching. It show how accidents occur when people over speed or jump signals and if they would have waited for few seconds they would have been safe. We have put the background music and given the credit to music trio Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani and Loy Mendonsa and the lyricist Javed Akthar.
