Currently auto rickshaws in 3 cities come equipped with seat belts

Rapido has announced its initiative to equip over 1000 autos in Delhi with seatbelts and rain curtains. The primary objective of this endeavour is to improve safety measures in autos and raise awareness about road safety practices

As a part of the endeavour, Rapido Autos plying in the areas of South Delhi (Malviya Nagar, Saket, Sarojini Nagar), Noida (Sector 6 & Kaushambi Metro), Greater Noida (Knowledge Park) and Gurugram (Sector 30) have been equipped with seatbelts and rain curtains.

Pavan Guntupalli, co-founder of Rapido Auto, said, "Autos in India do not essentially have adequate safety measures to prevent injuries in case of accidents. We have already implemented seatbelts in Delhi, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru, and we are steadfast in extending this practice across all the cities where we are operational."
