It would not only increase awareness but also help in checking the number of accidents in the future,' said Navdeep Singh, additional director general of police, traffic.
Teachers imparting traffic education would be trained through various state agencies. The training programme could be conducted in phases.
Several private schools in the state are already giving such education to the students with the help of senior retired officials of transport and traffic departments.
