Abstract
Road traffic safety refers to the methods and measures used to prevent road users from being killed or seriously injured. Every year more than 1 million people are injured in road accidents. The current study was aimed to assess and evaluate the knowledge and attitude regarding road safety among adolescent boys before and after planned teaching program and to determine the correlation between knowledge score and attitude score regarding road safety after planned teaching program among adolescent boys. The Quantitative Research Approach with Pre experimental ‘One group pre-test post-test design ‘was adopted for the study. The study observed that the mean post test knowledge score (22.46) was significantly higher than mean pre-test knowledge score (17.1) where the ‘t’ value (2.05) was 7.32 at 0.05 level of significance as well as post test attitude score (6.70) was significantly higher than mean pre-test attitude score (5.93) where the ‘t’ value (2.05) was 3.73 at 0.05 level of significance. The study concludes that the planned teaching program was found effective in increasing the knowledge and attitude of adolescent boys regarding road safety.
