Obey Traffic Rules! By Order, Kerala Police

The most basic traffic rules written in Malayalam hang from a traffic signal post at Kalady junction on the MC Road in Kerala. (Traffic signals are called just “traffic” in Kerala. So what is traffic actually called? A “block”. Yeah we are complicated.

The rules written are as follows:

• Don’t drink and drive.
• Always wear seatbelts.
• Do not overtake from the left.
• Do not use mobiles while driving.
• Two-wheelers keep to the left side of the road.
• Obey traffic rules.
• Prevent accidents and accident deaths.
