'Helmet Man Of India' Stops Speeding Biker On Agra-Lucknow Expressway To Give Him Helmet, Mumbai Police Reacts
After the biker stops, Kumar gives him the brand new helmet and asks him to always wear it while driving and be careful.
Road safety should be a top priority for everybody. Wearing a helmet while driving a motorbike and putting on the seat belt of the car should not be avoided at any cost. But we still see people taking traffic rules lightly and risking their lives. Now, a man from Bihar, Raghavendra Kumar also known as 'Helmet man of India' has taken up the responsibility of create awareness among people about road safety.
The man is often seen handing out helmets to passersby in order to make them aware of road safety rules. In a recent post, Kumar shared a clip taken on the Agra-Lucknow Expressway in which he is seen driving a car wearing a helmet. After a few moments, he puts out a brand new helmet out of the window and signals to a helmet-less biker to stop.
After the biker stops his motorbike, Kumar gives him the brand new helmet and asks him to always wear it while driving and be careful. The man thanks Kumar in the video.
"I did not exceed the car's speed above 100, but when a person overtook me on the Lucknow Expressway, I was stunned because he was without a helmet, and his speed was more than us. To give him a safety cover and to catch him, we had to drive the car over 100. #Helmetman," read the caption of the post shared by Kumar.
अपनी कार की रफ्तार 100 से ऊपर नहीं ले जाता लेकिन लखनऊ एक्सप्रेसवे पर एक व्यक्ति जब मुझे ओवरटेक किया मैं दंग रह गया क्योंकि बिना हेलमेट उसकी रफ्तार हमसे ज्यादा थी. उसे सुरक्षा कवच हेलमेट देने के लिए 100 से ऊपर अपनी गाड़ी को भगाना पड़ा अंत में उसे पकड़ ही लिया. #Helmetman @PMOIndia pic.twitter.com/BbpYbQ43C7
