Vibrant kite-flying shows are held in Gujarat and other parts of the country during Independence Day week. The sky is filled with colorful kites, but the strings that tie the kites often have hidden dangers. These ropes are made of abrasive materials like glass or metal and can cause serious accidents when they become entangled with two-wheelers. The rider may lose control, resulting in injury or worse.

what is string protector
Every year, several incidents occur during Independence Day celebrations that highlight the Precaution. In response, the Gujarat Police came up with an innovative solution: “rope protectors” for two-wheelers. They are mounted on the handlebars of motorcycles and scooters. They work by coiling up any kite string that comes into contact with them, thus preventing the string from becoming entangled in the rider and causing fatal injuries, such as cuts to the rider’s face and neck.
Police appear to be distributing these rope protectors for free across the state. This proactive approach allows residents to enjoy the festivities without compromising safety. By using string protectors and choosing non-abrasive kite strings, people can ensure that their Independence Day is both fun and safe.
