The vadodara traffic police have discovered a way to beat the summertime heat. Its employees are now required to wear customized air-conditioned helmets. These cutting-edge AC helmets are made to relieve heat during peak temperatures between 40 and 42 degrees Celsius.
These helmets have a number of unique features installed. They feature a charging port as well as a visor to protect the eyes from sunlight. These helmets can keep you cool for up to eight hours when fully charged.
There have been instances of officials fainting on the road due to heat, which has led to this initiative. Traffic police personnel, who have received these helmets on a trial basis, reported improved comfort and efficiency in performing their duties.
A video shared by ANI News on X, formerly Twitter, showed three traffic policemen stationed on the road wearing the AC helmets. The initiative has garnered positive feedback from the public, with many commending it as a beneficial step forward.
