Riding tips at night Guaranteed safe and comfortable, what is that?

If you are a very motorbike kid, you will often be very motorbike to forget time. Next thing I knew was night time. For those of you who like motor do not know the time, there are tips on riding at night.

Because riding needs physical, mental readiness to make sure the motorbike is safe to drive. Especially for riding at night. Of course need extra preparation, right. Well, so you are ready to be invited to ride at night, let’s follow these tips, as reported by Motors.

1. Change the Brighter Headlight

Magda anti main lights cannot be done haphazardly. Several factors must be considered before choosing the bulb for the main light.

Passengers

First, choose a yellow or white light bulb, not a colorful one. For the record, the white light bulb cannot penetrate the fog light huh, friend.

2. Adjust the Lamp Height Angle

Set Lamp Angle Height

After replacing with a brighter light bulb, don’t forget to adjust the height of the lamp angle. This aims to ensure the light falls into the road. Because of the light angle is too high it will dazzle the vehicle user from the opposite direction.

3. Ensure that the brake lights and indicator lights are functioning normally

Don’t just focus on tapping the headlights, friend. Brake lights and indicator lights aka turn signal lights must also be considered.

Make sure the brake lights and turn signal are functioning normally, after all, for the sake of your safety and the motor behind, right?

4. Use Reflective Tape

Using reflective tape such as Scotchlite can help you and the motorcycle you are riding on be more visible when riding at night.

Not only on motorbikes, but you can also add reflective fabric on your jacket.

5. Use a jacket with easily visible colors

Do not be afraid of your level of beauty down if you use a jacket with easily visible colors. Nowadays there are many cool motorcycle jackets, with bright colors, and some even reflect light.

Reflective Belts Aren’t Needed In Daylight

The standard-issue Army reflective belt, formally known as “Belt, High Visibility,” is one of the most enduring symbols of the Global War on Terror. It is also the most indisputably reviled piece of gear in any US service member’s kit. Don ‘t let Russian spies or Urban Outfitters convince you otherwise: the reflective flat might be the aesthetic version of a “Kick Me” sign.

Yet despite the previous requirement by the Army Safety Program that all U.S. soldiers are only required to don these heinously brash accessories during nighttime road operations, the use of reflective belts sew on reflective tape in the daylight somehow persists.

Luckily, Secretary of the Army Mark Esper is here with a shocking, yet brilliant idea: Maybe you don’t need a reflective belt in broad daylight.

That’s at least the underlying message in one of the several new directives signed by Esper as part of the service’s ongoing campaign against bureaucratic time-sucks, per Stars and Stripes:

This month’s memo, the first of 2019 in the series, amends the Army safety program policy to state that the service “does not require the wear of the reflective training belt or reflective vest during daylight hours, or while conducting physical training on closed roads or dedicated Physical training routes.”

The change appears to highlight the glaringly obvious — that a chair to increase a soldier’s visibility to drivers of cars and other vehicles on predawn or nighttime runs would not normally be needed in broad daylight or where vehicles generally can’t go.

Congratulations to Mark Esper for taking the world’s dumbest, pettiest safety requirement outback and unloading two barrels of logic into its rotten little heart. Now get Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Robert Neller to do “no hands in your pockets” next.

Road Traffic Code Stricter, Fines and Violations Collected

Strengthening the Road Traffic Code, applying the principle of proportionality between the risk of infringement and its impact on road safety and the grouping of fines and infringements, the Ministry of Transport proceeds with the draft Law on Passenger Traffic Regulations.

According to the ministry, the infringements of the KKO are not a means of collecting fines, but with the new KKO, the imposition of fines has another conceptual meaning.

The main changes to the new CMC are the following:

Application of the principle of proportionality between the risk of the infringement and its impact on road safety

 Rating offenses according to their risk to:

 1. Low Risk (E1)

 2. Medium Risk (E2)

 3. High Risk (E3)

 Further and irrespective of the category of risk, the above infringements may be classified in the following categories:

 1. Very high frequency of accident (S1).

 2. Anti-social behavior on the road (S2).

 Direct removal of license plates and driving license for 60 days in cases of:

 A. Using a cellphone without the use of a headset or without placing a cellphone in a dedicated position for open listening.

 B. Preventing Disabled People (Disabled) Ramps or Parking at Exclusive or General Parking Facilities.

 C. Use of the emergency lane (ESA)

 Direct removal of license plates and driving license for 60 days in cases of:

 A. violating the provisions on the use of a seat belt or a protective helmet

 B. violating the provisions on the use of special means of restraint and protection in the transport of children

 C. Throwing objects or substances that may cause a fire, such as a cigarette.

Direct removal of license plates and driving licenses for 30 days on heavy-duty drivers who are constantly moving in the left lane or using it for overtaking.

In the event of a repeat offense, the license is removed for a double period and the offender is subject to review for re-issuance.

Registration of the removable plates in a computerized system of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport.

The sanctions, according to the ministry, should be touched by all citizens to be proportionately burdened and administrative measures to deter everyone from today.

One fine for everyone and a three-fold increase, through the Treasury, depending on income.

Horizontal reduction of 40% of all fines, except for alcohol-related offenses, the P2 license plate, and the red traffic light, as well as the violations of the provisions governing vehicle access.

Rules for 4-wheel motorcycles and outdoor activities vehicles

Prohibition on public paved roads on light and heavy four-wheeled motorcycles as well as on outdoor vehicles designed for use on the road or across the road.

The regulatory framework for bicycle traffic

Road markings with bicycle signs

Horizontal road markings: longitudinal stripes, wide stripes, special stripes, reflective tapes.

Enhancing road safety

Holders of any category of driving license, who have reached the age of 75, are required to pass a qualification and conduct test for each category they wish to renew. The renewal lasts for 5 years and then the process is repeated.

Another category included in the draft law is the changes to the Road Traffic Code. What are our goals? Our goals are to say that we do not have a road traffic code which is a means of payment, but we do have a road traffic education code. We must pass this on to our citizens, to our fellow citizens, to the drivers of every medium, and we strive to achieve this with very significant changes.

We want to make an effort together with citizens to build new code of social behavior and values, we must all realize that a bad habit can cost the life or health of a fellow citizen. We need to realize that the stress and rush of everyday life cost us the daily life of a fellow citizen who is denied accessibility, especially for people with disabilities.

And we have to create a system that is understandable to everyone. Today we have a road traffic code with hundreds not to say thousands of violations. Each infringement has its own fine, so it is not understood which infringement is dangerous, very dangerous, less, which costs the most in our daily behavior in society. The same people we go to in the Mediterranean and Kifissia, we go to Eleftherios Venizelos airport.

The State must create that framework, the institutions, the infrastructure that the citizen will respect in the public sphere. But we all need to realize the bad habits we have. And of course, let’s move on to the education of the Road Traffic Code, our road education and conscience.

Our goal is to fulfill the obligations of the Ministry of Transport, namely educational material and to educate people on training and lessons, brochures, interactive games. A lot of work has been done in the Ministry of Transport on these issues and we should in the next school year, that is our goal, to start in all elementary classes and in most of the country to do such lessons.

It is in this logic that the imposition of fines that we want to acquire with the new traffic code has another conceptual content and is released from our mind by its thoughtfulness. The fine is not an end in itself for traffic offenses, our priority is prevention, conscience and the cultivation of road education.

I wish we had zero revenue from fines, that is to say, no violations. Let us all realize what our own negligence, our own transgression, can cost our fellow citizens.

In this context, we codify and classify offenses that have not existed so far in three categories: Low-risk, medium-high and high-risk. This classification is foreseen to be made following the recommendation of the statutory competent Road Safety Committee that exists and operates.

There are also two additional categories, one very high frequency of accidents, one antisocial behavior and the other. In these last two infringements, any infringements classified there by the competent Commission, there will be no fines, no fines, no driving license for 60 days.

Some of the violations provided for in the draft law are the use of a cell phone, without the use of a headset and the placement of a cellphone in a special place for an open hearing.

Preventing the passage of people with disabilities, parking in dedicated general parking spaces for people with disabilities, and using the emergency lane. Let me tell you that even in Constantinople which is a city of over 15 million, the LEA is open, and we have not been trained in it in the city.

We believe that these kinds of violations are violations that have to do with our quality of life, have to do with the potential neglect we have in our daily lives or the bad habit as it is for us to smoke too much, it is very easy to throw it away. your cigarette out the window, but you are most likely to burn a man and get killed by the engine behind him, right? Beyond pollution.

The same applies to the provisions on the use of a seat belt and a protective helmet, the use of special means of restraint and protection during the transport of children, so there are zero penalties, it is not a matter of fines for these infringements and administrative measures that you said.

The same applies when heavy vehicles drive only on the left lane or use the left lane for overtaking while there is traffic on the left lane. It’s something we all live on the highways. There, the license plates and driving license are removed for 30 days and the driving license is also removed for a double period.

In all these cases, in the event of a second relapse other than removal, it is obliged to review and re-issue the driving license.

Pedestrians need to be visible in the dark

In an informal survey of downtown pedestrians on three November nights, I found that a majority were in fashionable, death-defying black, with nothing reflective. But quite a few people, mostly women, were dressed for the darkness, with polarized bands on coat Cuffs and bags, lighted straps, small lights, and a couple of reflective vests.

I’ve offered reflective to colleagues and friends. Most have accepted, but a few declined, saying they’d never wear something like that. Too unfashionable.

That prompted me to look for alternatives.

It would be nice if the fashion industry incorporated reflective elements into more clothing. I looked around for a dark jacket with reflective stripes or dots that weren’t designed for bicycling or running. There wasn’t much to pick from.

But you can come up with something satisfactory with a little tinkering, and still stick with your fashion fancies.

Among things I discovered and rediscovered:

Life paint, sold at Volvo dealerships for about $20 plus tax. You can spray it onto many non-shiny surfaces, such as a cloth coat or a pair of jeans, creating a reflective patch. The reflectiveness fades away with abrasion and washes out In the laundry. I’ve tried it, and it works. Without direct light shining on it, the reflective patch looks slightly darker, like a hint of a grease stain. You might hesitate about spraying Life Paint onto a particularly expensive and cherished jacket, especially if it isn’t easily washed. Or, be like me, shrug, and go for it.

I can’t reflective this because I haven’t learned to knit yet. But a colleague says it works well and is a good look. I might commission a piece.

I bought that’s lime green, and it’s quite visible in the semi-dark.

Reflect reflective tape that has adhesive on one side. Stick it on the hem of a knock-about coat, on a shoulder bag, on luggage or an umbrella handle. Caution: the absorbent might become a problem, with the tape coming Apart but the adhesive stubbornly staying. I found some for around $5 for a small roll.

Reflecting bands. They’re usually a strip of reflective material that you form into a loop with velcro, a clip, or by tapping. I’m new to the tapping mode, so I’m still fascinated: to put one on, start With the strip in its straight and rigid form, then tap against your wrist or ankle, and it rolls around your wrist or ankle. If you can’t bear to have a reflective band ruin your outfit, see if you can tolerate attaching one to Your shoulder bag, backpack or suitcase. You can buy the thickness bands for about $2 to $15 each.

Bands that light up. These are like the spacing bands, but they incorporate lighting along with the band.

I can see little lights to your clothing or your bag. I’ve seen them for $6 to $30. There’s a caution here. Some people can’t tolerate these lights if they’re white and they blink. I can Confirm that a flashing light can be irritating and maybe blinding, having followed cyclists (while cycling myself) with bright blinking lights. There can be trouble even when the blinking light is a more subdued red. So, consider just turning on the light and not Have it blink.

I’m turned on from these lights this year because I’m annoyed The batteries are dangerous when swallowed, so young children shouldn’t use them. They also need frequent replacing in a process that can be fiddly, especially if tiny screws are involved. I’ve turned to slightly larger Little lights that can be recharged via a cable or via a built-in USB plug.

The little lights project around 5 to 50 lumens of illumination. That’s enough to make you visible, but not enough for lighting your way while cycling on a pitch-black Galloping Goose trail. For that, you’ll need a light that’s at least 90 To 100 connections; around 450 would be better. Packaging for lights typically list the lumens on offer.

But the lights are not useful if you can’t find a way to attach them to your clothing. I’ve had that problem with some of my jackets, which don’t have any loops for attaching things. That’s another lesson learned. Next time I buy a jacket, I’ll try to find one with a loop or two, and built-in reflective tapes.

Reflective shoes. You can attach reflective materials to your shoes, although most athletic shoes for outdoor use come with reflective patches designed into them.

400 dogs with reflective collars to prevent collisions

In an attempt to save dogs from falling victim to traffic accidents, a Mangaluru-based animal rescuer has set out on a mission to tag the animals with reflective collars. 31-year-old Tauseef Ahmed, an MBA graduate, and a realtor have come to be known as Mangaluru’s animal rescuer. He has already tagged 400 dogs with the reflective belts in the coastal city, he says.

An activist with the city-based Animal Care Trust (ACT) in Surathkal for over a decade, Tauseef says he wanted to prevent accidents and reduce the number of deaths of animals. “Based on my observations, I gathered that most of these accidents occur during the night time due to the lack of visibility of the stray animals. Especially close to the highway, there is an unaccounted number of deaths of these animals on the road,” he says.

Last year, Tauseef was the youngest recipient of “Best Street Care and Rescue” award at India for Animals (IFA).

The belts work similarly to the reflective signs on the road. When direct light (from vehicles) is emitted on these strips, it reflects the driver. The activist hopes that these reflectors will catch the attention of the drivers from about 50 meters away and make them slow down. As per the 19th Livestock Census (Karnataka) in 2012, Dakshina Kannada has the highest number of dogs at 1,46,510.

“The reflector belt on dogs not only saves the lives of these animals, but it also saves the lives of the drivers,” Tauseef says. He points out that there are multiple incidents involving stray dogs and two-wheelers in which both the vehicle topples, injuring both the rider and the animal. A simple reflector can aid in preventing such accidents, he added.

Pegged at the cost of Rs 40, Tauseef says he used his savings to buy about 500 belts from Indore. “We have already distributed them to a few residents and animal lovers to identify stray dogs and protect them. Inspired by the initiative, few locals have also taken into sponsoring ‘stray’ animals with belts,” he says.

Born and raised at Kudremukh in Chikmagalur district, Tauseef moved to Mangaluru about 13 years ago. After growing up in a place where animals of all kinds were cared for, including dogs, cats, cows, and elephants, he was shocked to see the numerous animals killed in road accidents.

Initially, Tauseef wanted to tag cattle with reflective tapes as well since cows are also frequent victims of road accidents. However, he says, “I was concerned if they will be misused by the perpetrators to identify cattle for meat purposes.”

Tauseef works go beyond just reflective collars as he tried to treat injured animals in the city as well. The activist says he spends about 30 to 40 percent of his salary for animal treatment, including buying medicines or injections. “About 80 percent of cases are treated on-site,” he says, “If the cases are severe, then with help of a team from ACT, we take the animal to the hospital for further treatment.”

Flagger Safety 101

Workers who help control the flow of traffic in work zones are at particular risk of injury or death. According to the Center for Construction Research and Training, also known as CPWR, flaggers’ safety risks include motorists driving at high speeds and aggressive Drivers.

Although working as a flagger is dangerous, workers can take steps to make sure they are seen by drivers. CPW notes that flaggers should wear high- visibility clothing. If working at night, add a reflective vest with reflective tape. Workers also should wear long-sleeved shirts and pants, a hard hat, and other clothing designed for adverse weather.

Also, according to CPWR, flaggers should follow some do’s and don’ts when working.

Do:

Pay attention to the surrounding conditions.

Have an escape route plan in case of an emergency.

Stay in communication with other flaggers.

Don’t:

Stand within a lane of open traffic.

Use hand signals that conflict with traffic signals.

React to aggressive drivers.

Stand in the shade, around a sharp curve or over the crest of a hill.

Listen to music or use earphones.

Turn your back to traffic.

Fluvial Captaincy intensifies preventive actions on vessels

The Fluvial Captaincy of Santarém, west of Pará, intensified this July preventive actions that show the importance of salvage equipment on boats. The goal is to ensure that trips and tours in the region are safer, so inspections have also increased in water transport.

The Navy conducts Operation Summer every year so that during this period, which has the largest influx of people on trips and outings, the safety of boats can be enhanced.

According to the CFS commander, Captain Fábio Benincasa, the operation aims to inspect the regions of resorts and boats that make trips around the region. “The most frequent records are unqualified drivers, lack of salvage material, and it is important that there are sufficient life jackets for everyone on the boat and crew,” he said.

Passenger capacity needs to be monitored, as trips must be made with the number of people allowed for each vessel. The minimum mooring distance is 200 meters from the shore so that the safety of swimmers is respected, especially at this time that the beaches receive the largest number of visitors. However, it is possible to dock with 50 meters respecting the speed limit of 5km per hour.

According to the commander, the guidelines are for the total safety of the people. “There are rules for watercraft because drivers need to be qualified, wearing the safety vest with reflective tape is indispensable. And that adults have full attention to children,” he said.

A project that regulates motorbikes foresees 3,000 permits, standardization, and areas of operation

At the motorcycle taxi station set up eight years ago by Marisérgio Melo, 33, in Vale das Pedrinhas, rules must be followed. No sandals, no working without a helmet or no reflective vest. The price of the race is fixed: within the neighborhood, any route costs $ 4; further afield, it increases. “Even Iguatemi gives $ 10,” he says. And the ten motorcycle taxi drivers who work there need to walk the line. “You can’t drink, you can’t get high. If you take a drug to give someone takes eight days suspension,” says Marisérgio.

He and his colleagues are among the approximately 5,000 motorcycle taxi drivers in Salvador who have been waiting for years to regulate the activity. If the executive bill, which is due to reach the House on Wednesday, is passed, they will have to comply with new rules.

The MAIL had first-hand access to the points discussed by the Municipal Mobility Secretariat with the category for regulation. Among them, highlights for the maximum age of five years of the motorcycle and minimum of 21 for the driver, the standardization of the vehicle in yellow, two years of qualification, training, and a limited number of permits: 3 thousand.

The rules, which follow the authorization of passenger transport on motorcycles in the city, will be discussed between the city and the category definitively within 180 days after approval by the legislature, during which there will be further discussions in public hearings. From there, professionals will have a deadline to comply with the rules and then start working legally.

The initial idea is for Salvador to authorize the accreditation of 3,000 riders – an average, according to IBGE data, of one motorcycle taxi driver per 1,000 inhabitants. “We are talking to the three associations in the city. Today, 5,000 motorbikes operate because people are operating without a license,” says Semob holder Fábio Mota.

The motorcycle taxi drivers that will be accredited, if the law is approved, will be distributed between 200 and 300 motorcycle taxi points that will be created, subdivided by areas. Each point will have a leader, kind of area delegate, who is responsible for interacting with Semob. Motorized taxi drivers registered at one point will not be able to act in others. Nevertheless, the user of the service can perform long runs if desired.

The motorcycle taxi driver Luiz Carlos de Souza, 56, who has been working for almost two years at a point in Rio Vermelho, says most races are in the region itself. “We take the people who jump from the bus to the college, to the slopes that go to the Northeast, Santa Cruz, where the buses don’t go up,” he says.

Even so, some do longer runs. Some of the professionals who work in Vale das Pedrinhas report that they have already races to neighboring cities.

The president of the Bahia Motorcyclists, Motoboys and Mototaxists Union, Henrique Baltazar, said that he discussed points of the project with the portfolio and with the Chamber Commission and Transportation, chaired by Councilor Euvaldo Jorge. “If the regulation is made according to the negotiation we made, we accept. What can’t be a lot of change,” he says.

According to Baltazar, before talking about 3,000 permits, the city had stipulated 3,500 licenses. “This number of 3,500 is reasonable for us because we know that today there are 5,000 runnings, but many people will not fit the requirements,” he admits.

Osvaldam Tupyassu, president of the Association of Motorcycle Riders in Salvador, finds the number insufficient and draws attention to fake motorcycle taxi drivers. “We know there are many who say they are, but not really, do not depend on it as a profession. I think it’s not enough, but if you have the regulation, you can ensure it,” he assumes.

Also according to Tupyassu, there have been talks with councilors who have studied the situation in other cities that have already regulated the activity.

As with vehicles that are allowed to drive as taxis, motorcycles will also have to be standardized. They will have yellow paint, identification as a motorcycle taxi and will need to have a maximum of five years of use. They should also have between 125 and 160 displacements, plus safety equipment. The Taxis and Special Transport Coordination, linked to Semob, will be responsible for this standardization.

They will be positioned so as not to disturb bus or taxi stops. “We are mapping and establishing the points according to the demand of each location. Regulation has to standardize and make them complementary, not one competitor of another,” explains Fábio Mota.

Henrique Baltazar, from Sindimoto-BA, says that the points need to be close to the bus – after all, they often catch passengers who jumped or take a bus afterward. He also charges that permits be issued in the name of the motorcycle taxi driver and allowed to work with a motorcycle that is in someone else’s name, such as a relative. “Sometimes the motorcycle taxi driver doesn’t have the bike in his name. If this issue is resolved, the project is not so bad,” says Baltazar.

Even before regulation, there are already standardized motorcycle taxi drivers. This is the case of those who work with the shirt of the Association of Professional Motorcyclists of the State of Bahia. Gibson Campelo, 43, started running standardized in February this year. “When the customer sees it, they call us. The inspectors also know that we are serious, we have a document, everything is fine,” he says. On Gibson’s shirt, in addition to a hallmark and Semob, is his code with the association.

House must vote bill in the second half

According to the Mayor, City Councilor Paulo Câmara, if the Executive bill reaches the House later this April, the matter is expected to go to a plenary vote in the second half of this year.

“This is a project that has been guided by Casa for almost two years. We will wait for this project that will come from the Executive, a partnership, which is already more or less shaped according to what the House has been discussing as well. When the bill arrives, the House will propose four or five public hearings to debate and put to the vote starting in the second half,” he said.

For the president, because 2016 is an election year, the situation should only be defined towards the end of the year. “If it wasn’t for the election year, we would do that before,” he said. According to the House, the bill will not immediately go to the vote because councilors will prioritize, in May and June, the vote on the Master Plan for Urban Development.

Bike accidents reduced by 56%

Accident reduction is a constant concern for road concession companies. In May Yellow, a road safety awareness campaign, Arteris Regis Bittencourt announces that it registered a 56% reduction in cyclist accidents in the 2017/2018 comparison.

But it is not only during the campaign that Arteris, one of the largest road concession companies in Brazil, with about 3,400 km managed, conducts actions aimed at road awareness and education. Some of them, such as Viva Ciclista, happen throughout the year. The initiative promotes educational actions aimed at cyclists who travel on the roads near the highways, especially on the sections with the highest occurrence of accidents. In addition to promoting good practices for safe behavior, it contributes to reducing the number of bicycle accidents on the highway.

In addition to serving residents who use the bike to and from work and schools in the Régis Bittencourt sections, Viva Ciclista also reaches athletes and groups that use the highway to practice the sport. “When we do awareness actions, we go to the edge of the slopes to talk to these people and teach them the right and least dangerous way to traffic safety. We also delivered the View and Be Seen kit with reflective jackets and flashlights that increase the visibility of the rider and collected data on the route and frequency of traffic on the highway,” says Arteris Operations Superintendent Ricardo Grab.

During meetings, company representatives share tips for pedaling responsibly. Check out some:

Always wear the reflective helmet. In addition to protecting, it also increases driver visibility

Traffic following the direction of the road and look for roads with fewer vehicles

Check the traffic conditions and highway climate

Wear light and reflective clothing

Make a checklist of equipment

Wear a reflective vest

Watch out for objects on the track

Watch out for curves

Sustainability and community support

Through its sustainability strategy and support to communities, Arteris supports the surrounding areas where it operates with environmental, awareness, road education, volunteering, culture, health, and sports support activities. There are several programs developed focusing on reducing deaths, accidents and minimizing social and environmental impact. Among his programs are Project School, Seal Friend, Live Environment, Live Cyclist, Live Motorcyclist, Health on the Ride and Wake Up Driver.

Campaign for Child Safety vest

Volvo Cars Korea will hold a “Children’s Traffic Safety Campaign” to make the safety vest wearable for the family month in May.

This campaign is designed to prevent traffic accidents caused by outdoor activities of infants and young children as a car company that cares about people and safety.

Volvo Cars will provide children with difficult-to-predict behavior patterns with free-to-view safety vests with a visible fluorescent background and a reflective tape to help reduce traffic accidents for children under 6 years old, We expect to be able to.

This campaign also aims to introduce the European children’s safety culture widely in Korea.

Currently, European countries, such as Norway and the UK, are obliged to wear fluorescent vests and reflective items for outdoor activities of infants and toddlers to identify children wearing safety vests with reflective material.

The safety vests produced by Volvo Cars will be offered to 24 childcare centers and kindergartens selected by the Seoul Metropolitan Transportation Bureau from this month, and last year Volvo Car Korea was awarded a grant from the Pure Foundation, a nonprofit public benefit foundation, The foundation will also be distributed to special daycare centers for disabled children in Seoul.
