Nakilat has conducted a traffic safety awareness session in collaboration with the Traffic Department at the Ministry of Interior.
First Lieutenant Abdul Wahab al-Anzi and a team from the Traffic Department gave an informative and insightful presentation to Nakilat employees on Qatar’s traffic laws, the importance of adhering to road safety regulations and common causes of accidents while driving.
Several road safety videos were also shown during the presentation to further emphasise the importance of road safety.
Recognising that road accidents are a significant cause of injuries and death in Qatar, Nakilat’s traffic safety session was aimed at educating and raising awareness among Nakilat employees “to be responsible drivers to ensure the safety of their lives, that of their loved ones and the general public”, according to a press statement from Nakilat. Also, the session was part of the company’s efforts to create an “incident- and injury-free environment in accordance with the company’s mission and vision statement”.
All Nakilat employees also attended defensive driving training to enhance their road safety and safe driving skills.
Nakilat’s ‘I-Pledge’ initiative was launched during the event, in which Nakilat employees voluntarily pledge their commitment towards observing safe driving habits, such as refraining from using their mobile phones while driving, wearing the seat belt while driving and pedestrian safety.
Nakilat is an LNG transport company providing an essential transportation link in Qatar’s LNG supply chain.
