With the ‘Drive with Care’ film, which hits hard at the road safety issue, we aim to create awareness amongst the people and bring about the attitudinal change to be safe on the road and to care for others at the same time,” said Jack Uppal, VP Marketing and Customer Care, Chevrolet India.

To promote the campaign, safety messages saying ‘Drive with Care’ will be painted in select residential area that will appear whenever it rains, educating families to be more careful while driving during the monsoon.
