Lions Club joins 'Drive Smart Drive Safe' campaign

PETALING JAYA: The Otomotif College (TOC) and Lions Club Kuala Lumpur North have joined hands to promote road safety.

Under the Memorandum of Understanding between the two, TOC will train Lions Club speakers for the "Drive Smart Drive Safe" (DS2) campaign, which is a series of free road safety workshops.

At the signing, TOC chief executive officer Adeline Foo said the college wishes to contribute to the development of the country's automotive industry by spreading the message of road safety.

"Our team will transfer our knowledge to the speakers from the Lions Club, so they can deliver the message to as many Malaysians as possible," she said.

Some 300 Lions attended the first DS2 workshop at TOC in Jalan 19/1, recently.

Lions Club Kuala Lumpur North president Lee Yew Foo said the collaboration with TOC is one of its community projects.

More DS2 workshops are scheduled on Oct 18, Nov 15 and Dec 20 at TOC.

The programme is recommended by the Malaysian Road Safety Council.

Modules include "Safe Driving At Night," "Defensive Driving," "How To Handle Emergencies While Driving" and "DIY Car Inspections."
