GCC Traffic Week 2016: Saudi Arabia’s Seat-belt Campaign
The Gulf Traffic week has returned for its 32nd run, and it’s bigger and louder than ever. “Your decision determines your destiny” is this year’s slogan, as governments, businesses and organizations work together to raise an increased level of traffic safety awareness to GCC drivers.

In KSA: “ Hizamik..Amanik” “Your Belt..Your Safety”

The community-focused Mujtama3 Jameel established the Abdul Latif Jameel Initiative for Traffic Safety and went the extra mile this year, bringing in the support of popular community figures: footballers. With the stricter laws in The kingdom, enforcing significant fines to those who fail to wear them when driving; Mujtama3 Jameel compiled a video featuring the sportsmen highlighting why they believe individuals should take extra precautions in order to insure their and others’ safety by simply taking 5 seconds to wear their safety belt.
