Safe roads and 'susegad' holidays in Goa

HELMET ON, WORRIES GONE

Whether you’re cruising down NH66 or zipping through a Goan village, protect your head — wear a helmet. The beach can wait, safety can’t!

BIKES ARE NOT FOR A CREW

Overloading your scooter may seem like a fun idea — until it’s too late.

DRUNK DRIVING?

That’s a susegad no-no. Whether it's urrak season or you're high on beer, an alcohol-fuelled ride or drive is dangerous. Remember real Goan vibes are about living, not risking it all!

BE CALM AND DON'T INTIMIDATE

While we thrive on tourism, we also draw the line at reckless driving and road rage. So, respect the rules of the road.

NO NEED FOR SPEED

Goa's roads are picturesque, but that’s no reason to speed or block traffic while trying to capture the perfect photo.

FOLLOW ROAD RULES 

Even if you're from the metro, keep calm and follow road safety rules, specially on intersections and while overtaking.

SELFIES CAN WAIT, SAFETY CAN’T

That Insta story on your bike, or sleek boomerang videos on the bridge at sunset can turn into a horror story if you’re not paying attention. Keep your eyes on the road!

HONKING WON’T MAKE TRAFFIC DISAPPEAR

Goa is laid-back, and so should your honking be. Chill, follow the rules, and enjoy the ride. Most of all, be courteous towards others on the road.
