As part of the nationwide autumn traffic safety campaign, Fukuyama Transport and the Komaru Traffic Foundation held street campaigns called "No Traffic Accidents Campaign" on September 26th at the Kotani Service Area on the Sanyo Expressway (Higashihiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture) and on September 29th in Fukuyama City.
In Higashihiroshima City, the event was co-sponsored by the Hiroshima Prefectural Police Headquarters Traffic Department Highway Traffic Security Unit, and in Fukuyama City, it was co-sponsored by the Hiroshima Prefectural Fukuyama East Police Station and the Fukuyama East Traffic Safety Association. With the wish for "no traffic accidents" embodied in the fruit, 200 pears were distributed each day along with traffic safety goods.
