Hyderabad Police Launch 'Helmet Bank' to Promote Rider Safety, Borrow Helmets Free

• Malkajgiri Police Commissionerate launched the 'Helmet Bank' initiative for two-wheeler riders in Hyderabad.
• Riders without helmets can borrow one free of cost by submitting basic details and must return it within 24 hours after purchasing their own.
• The initiative aims to ensure immediate compliance, protect lives, and encourage responsible riding behavior, moving beyond punitive action.
• It seeks to foster a positive mindset towards helmet use as a safety measure, not just to avoid traffic challans.
• Implemented at key traffic junctions, the 'Helmet Bank' supports the 'Arrive Alive' campaign, emphasizing helmet use for all trips.
