According to Hyundai, #BeTheBetterGuy focuses attention on crucial concerns relevant to road safety by emphasising key messaging such as "Always wear a seat-belt when seated in your car, even if you are a passenger seated in the rear. Follow all traffic rules & don’t over-speed, even when no one is watching you! Be a responsible road-user and don’t drive under the influence. Don’t use mobile phones while driving. Eyes, always on the road. Let pedestrians cross first, Make Indian roads safer-for-everyone. Give way to emergency service vehicles. Clear the path to life."
