Ola drivers reinforce their pledge towards a safe country

As part of the ‘Suraksha ka Sankalp’ campaign run by Ola throughout the Raksha Bandhan week, thousands of driver partners of the app took a pledge reinforcing their commitment to safety, on Monday.

As part of the 'Suraksha kaSankalp' campaign, thousands of customers, employees and representatives of Ola across cities tied rakhis to drivers. In return, drivers took the ceremonial pledge, reinforcing their commitment to protection of the interest and safety of their customers and the public at large.

Important rules that the drivers pledged to follow included wearing seat belts at all times, ensuring that the customer reaches their destination safely, on time and to strictly follow traffic rules. Pranay Jivrajka, Chief Operating Officer at Ola said, “Raksha Bandhan holds a special place in the hearts of all and signifies a commitment to a larger purpose.

We are sure that ‘Suraksha Ka Sankalp’ will only strengthen the resolve of our driver partners to contribute to safer roads and rides in the cities.” Other initiatives implemented by Ola includes dedicated 24x7 support centres for customers and drivers, in-app SOS Button, driver verification, ride tracking and a second layer of GPS for constant car monitoring.
