🚗 Empowering Young Drivers: Understanding Car Functioning & Road Safety 🚗
The Rotaract Club of Montebello had the privilege of hosting Mr. Bashir Maudarbocus, a highly experienced self-employed mechanic, on Sunday, 9th February, for an insightful and empowering session on car functioning and road safety. 🚘
With the increasing number of road accidents, understanding how a car operates and practicing responsible driving has never been more crucial. Mr. Bashir’s intervention was not only timely but eye-opening for our young members! 💡
🔧 From engine basics to car maintenance tips, he broke down the complexities of vehicles into simple, easy-to-understand insights. But beyond mechanics, he shared his inspiring journey — one that began in his early adulthood and led to the successful establishment of his garage. His story was a powerful reminder that passion, perseverance, and skill-building are key ingredients for success.
👩🔧 Empowerment Through Knowledge! 👨🔧
Both boys and girls were equally thrilled as they dived into the world of cars, learning about:
🚘 The meaning behind the codes on car wheels – Mr. Bashir explained the information inscribed on tyres
🚗 Features of different car makes – we explored how different car manufacturers design their vehicles, their unique features, and how they impact driving experiences 🌍
🔄 How to change a car wheel like a pro – A hands-on demonstration on how to safely and efficiently change a flat tyre 🛠️
📜 Understanding different car insurance types – We extended the discussion to the various types of car insurance available, helping our young drivers navigate comprehensive, third-party, and additional coverage options for better financial protection on the road 💰🛡️
Mr. Bashir also emphasized the importance of driving discipline, road courtesy, and the critical need to stay alert behind the wheel — because a responsible driver doesn’t just protect themselves but also their passengers and pedestrians. 🚦
To wrap up this engaging session, the gentlemen of the club surprised everyone with a fun-filled fellowship, featuring sweet treats and refreshing beverages. The conversations continued, with members eagerly discussing their newfound knowledge and how they would apply it in real life. 😋
A huge thank you to Mr. Bashir for his time, wisdom, and invaluable expertise! We also extend our gratitude to DO Leena for organizing this incredible and hands-on session, giving us a strong foundation in car mechanics and road safety awareness. 🚗
