Since 2005, the number of occurrences for vehicular accidents have continuously risen, as documented by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority Traffic Engineering Center, Road Safety Unit. As of year 2018, the figures have almost doubled, from 63,072 in 2007, to 116,906. And the most common cause for such is human error, which is responsible for an average of 8.5 in every 10 accidents nationwide. The secondary causes are mechanical issues and/or vehicle defects. These statistics are an evident call for a more comprehensive public education and awareness of road safety and regulations.
As such, beepbeep.ph and Bridgestone Philippines have united to promote a cause which both have been strongly advocating for, and that is to create safer roads for everyone in the country. Bridgestone is sharing their knowledge and expertise on tires, which is one of the most important parts of a vehicle, and a main factor for ensuring safety on the road. And in-house mechanics of beepbeep.ph, who are already TESDA-certified personnel, will receive additional training and certification by Bridgestone, ensuring that they meet world standards for tire safety and knowledge. The newly formed partnership kicks off with a guarantee from Bridgestone, to provide high quality service for all, and any kind, of tire assistance which beepbeep.ph users might need.
Both companies also committed to spread awareness and knowledge on road safety by becoming sources of the right information. Through the Bridgestone website, beepbeep.ph blog, and their respective social media sites, accurate instructions and tips on road safety and regulations can be found, offering a trustworthy source of information,
for car owners and drivers.
