Electric rickshaws (E-rickshaws) have become popular mode of transportation for many individuals, particularly in urban areas. Their popularity comes from their affordability, ease of use, and relative durability. It is essential, however for both drivers and passengers to take necessary precautions to ensure their safety while riding or driving an E-rickshaw.

Here are a few basic E-Rickshaw Safety Guidelines for passengers and drivers to ensure their well-being while using this mode of transportation.

For Passengers:

1. Always check the e-rickshaw before you get in to ensure it is in good working condition. Check the tires, brakes, seatbelts, lights, and any other optional safety equipment.
2. Always sit facing forward and use the safety belts, if provided.
3. Do not crowd the e-rickshaw as it can cause it to become unstable and lead to accidents.
4. Avoid overspeeding and rash driving. Urging the driver to go faster puts everyone in danger.
5. Keep all body parts, bags, and other items inside the e-rickshaw, especially when the vehicle is in motion.
6. Do not distract the driver with conversations or playing loud music. Your priority is everyone’s safety, and anything that interferes with that can put everyone’s safety at risk.

For Drivers:

1. Always keep an eye on the road and avoid any distractions such as talking on the phone, texting, or looking at maps while driving.
2. Always wear helmets and other safety gear such as gloves and reflective jackets.
3. Make sure to follow traffic rules and regulations. Ensure that speed limits are followed at all times.
4. Keep your vehicle in good condition. Check tires, brakes, headlights, and any other essential components regularly.
5. If your e-rickshaw has seatbelts, encourage passengers to use them. Make sure to inform them where they are located and how to use them.
6. Ensure that your passengers do not overcrowd, and keep all body parts inside the e-rickshaw when the vehicle is moving.
7. Avoid carrying overweight loads as it puts everyone at risk of accidents.
