Since school, children among 7 and 12 years old are included in the program “Let’s learn with Bumper”.
Using the company’s mascot as a guide: “Bumper,” children learn through a puppet show and other didactic materials. They learn the need of the preventive maintenance of the cars at home, to drive with responsibility and to even identify the Riteve inspectors as allies in the common battle to save lives on the roads.
I am responsible
Once young people in high school are about to get their first car, they are also helped with a contest of questions in teams to the style of “who wants to be a millionaire”.
They prove not only their capacity of answering correctly but also to adapt principles and values about road safety for their new stage as drivers.
Riteve Challenge
Adults are not exempted of the process of education.
The fairs of environment and road safety; as well as other public activities, allow the volunteers of Fuerza Riteve to approach them by applying the trivia called “Riteve Challenge.” This challenge tests adults’ knowledge and customs about preventive maintenance, Vehicular Technical Inspection (VTI), environment and road safety among others. This approach also permits the dialogue between inspectors and users which generates important feedback.
