Mazda participates in National Child Safety Car Seat Usage Campaign

Mazda, along with other companies, stepped forward with their support for the cause.

It was a mega event inviting every member of the family. Increasing awareness for usage of car seats for children was the prime concern of the event. The campaign was launched under the auspicious of the chief guest H.E. Brigadier Mohammed bin Abdullah bin Masoud Al Riyami, Deputy Inspector General of Police and Customs for operations.

The two-day event was filled with family fun, games, and prizes, along with the aim of actively making parents and children aware of safe driving, through interesting games and activities. A traffic park was temporarily built for children, who could explore various road situations in tricycles and thereby learn rules of safe driving and road security. There also were car seats available for sale at very affordable prices.

Mazda was one for the cause too. They were active participants in the campaign distributing flyers on child safety, use of child seats and explaining the safety features their vehicles offer. "Safety has always been a priority for Mazda. We have invested millions globally in the aim of creating safe vehicles and promoting secure driving. We are glad to be a part of this national campaign, which spreads the message of safety especially for children," says Annurag Chawla, Brand Manager, Mazda.

The standard safety features in every Mazda boast of MAIDAS (Mazda Advanced Impact Distribution & Absorption System), engine & gearbox drop down safety system, Triple H safety structure, Brake intrusion Safety pedal, dual airbags, Anti-lock Braking System and Electronic Brake Distribution.
