Knowledge in Traffic Law

Are you driving a vehicle? Have you ever been fined because of violating traffic law? And have you got a driving license? If your answers are ‘Yes’ for the first questions, it means that you don’t thoroughly understand the traffic law. It is a must to understand the law and abide it so that there will be fewer cases of traffic accidents which cause injury and fatality.

This Saturday (25th July) my friend and I went to the Safety Riding Center established and organized by the N.C.X Honda Co., Ltd, which provides Road Traffic Law and Safety Riding Course with free of charge. The course takes one whole day which includes real riding training and theory study. A certificate is provided after we have successfully finished it. This certificate is one of the requirements in test registration for driving license.

The N.C.X Safety Riding Center is located in the N.C.X Honda company compound along the Street Vengsreng, Sangkat Chom Chao, Khan Dangkor, Phnom Penh (nearby the Canacity Market). Every trainee is required to bring along a photocopy of I.D card or family book or birth certificate and two pieces of 4 x 6 size current photos. The application forms to apply for driving course is provided at the Center.
After the one-day course, I’ve learned several things especially the law. I’ve realized that I’ve violated the law in several aspects so far. Now, I feel like following the law more than before. I believe that if all drivers have attended the course, they will be more conscientious in abide by the road traffic law when they are driving in the way I experience. Traffic in Cambodia will be improved!



This is the field where we learn to drive. It is in mid-day, so the safety cones placed on the field are gathered back to the warehouse.


Here is where we sit to relax and listen to the instructions.

This is the free booklet on guidelines on land traffic.
