Careless driving brings speed breakers back

The Auroville Council and the Auroville Safety and Security Team issued a public warning against careless driving which is on the rise since the speed breakers on Auroville roads were removed for the visit of the Prime Minister. Parents were warned not to allow their children to drive before the right age, and without a driving license or insurance. All road users are encouraged to take more care, obey the rules of the road, and have respect for fellow drivers and pedestrians.

L’avenir d’Auroville has meanwhile finalized the positions for removable speed breakers in the City area which will be installed soon. At the community’s request it will remove the “chicanes”- 10 centimetres high road dividers, as they appear to be a danger to road users.
