The two-month campaign, co-organized by the country's Ministry of Road and Transport Development and the Traffic Police Department, aims to promote safe driving.

During the campaign, the organizers will offer information about the consequences of traffic accidents via traditional and social media, and give lectures on how to prevent road accidents and drive safely, according to authorities.

In addition, police officers are expected to carefully monitor existing surveillance cameras along roads and intersections, authorities said.

"Many people have been dying on roads in Mongolia, which is one of the most peaceful countries in the world. So, we are launching the campaign called 'Let's Follow Traffic Rules' to reduce road accidents and create a traffic safety culture," Enebish Bukhbat, head of the prevention division at the Traffic Police Department, told a press conference.

Noting that most of road accidents in the country are related to violations of traffic rules, Bukhbat urged drivers to always obey traffic rules.

Over 300 people have lost their lives in traffic accidents across Mongolia so far this year, according to the Traffic Police Department.

In 2018, 562 people were killed and 4,761 people were injured in traffic accidents in the country, it said.
