people are killed
in Road Accidents,
worldwide , every year.

3 to 4 % of Gross National Product


Is lost in Road Accidents.
Road Accident Statistics

One child is killed in


Road Accidents,

Road Accident Statistics
Total worldwide death toll of
Tsunami of 2004 was about 230,000.

But the annual worldwide death toll of


Road Accidents is 1,200,000 !!!
i.e. more than
five times the Tsunami toll.
Steps to be taken for
preventing Road Accidents
 Most important method to bring down
accidents is strict enforcement of
speed limits.
 90 % of accidents can be avoided by
strict enforcement of speed limits.
 Existing speed limits should be
brought down further.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Heavy Penalty should be imposed on


all those who cross speed limits. If
this is strictly implemented, nobody
will dare to go at high speed.

 Heavy penalty should be imposed


for those who cause accidents.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Tamper proof speed controllers


should be made mandatory for all
heavy vehicles. New heavy vehicles
should have built in tamper proof
speed controllers.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Two wheeler manufacturers should


be asked to design two wheelers
with a designed maximum speed of
(say) 50/60 kmph.
kmph.
( Suitable speed limit may be
selected for each country.)
How to prevent Road Accidents

 New gadgets are to be developed for


collision prevention and should be fitted
on all vehicle. Research organizations
should be asked to develop such gadgets
on a war footing. For example, gadgets
can be developed to automatically slow
down the vehicle, if safe distance
commensurate with the speed of the
vehicle in front is not maintained.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Diving tests for issue of Driving


license is to be made more stringent
and foolproof.

 Raisingof lower age limit for two


wheeler and Heavy Vehicle license
to 21.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Helmet should be made compulsory


by law in all states, OR impose a
lower speed limit for those who do
not use helmet.

 Helmet should be made compulsory


for back seat riders also.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Ensure that all Helmet users are fixing


the Chinstrap of Helmet. Otherwise it
will not help during an accident.
 Ensure that ONLY good quality
Helmets are available in the market.
 Strict enforcement of existing traffic
rules.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Law should be modified such that the


person who made the accident has to
bear (say) 0 to 10 % of the insurance
claims, depending on severity of
negligence. Also the compensations
should be made very huge, making
accidents unaffordable so that
everyone will be very vigilant.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Allthose who do not maintain the


safe distance for the speed should
be punished.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Safetyawareness should begin from


childhood, as it is difficult to impart
awareness to a grown up a human.
If safety awareness is imparted at
childhood, safety will be a habit.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Video and Computer Games that


simulate Racing should be banned
by Government OR discouraged by
parents as it will develop racing
habit in children.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Allsorts of Motor sports especially


racing should be banned by
government. Telecast of Motor
Sports and Racing also should be
banned.

not be permitted to do cycling in
busy roads / roads where heavy
vehicles are plying.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Refreshment parlors should be


made available at (say) every 50 /
100 k.m. on all national highways
and truck / heavy vehicle drivers
should be forced to refresh by
having a face wash or by having a
cup of tea or coffee.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 The current practice of keeping the


traffic signals in standby mode
during nights and on holidays is to
be reviewed and discontinued if
found prudent.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Advertisement boards and other


items that may obstruct visibility at
junctions, curvatures and other
parts of the roads should be
removed immediately.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Ensurethat the money recovered as


Road Tax is fully utilized for the
construction /maintenance of
roads.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Time Punching of Private buses


(practiced in some states) should be
discontinued as it is forcing the
drivers to go at high speed, after
traffic blocks.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 TV and other media should be


effectively used for Public safety
awareness.
 Major accidents and accident prone
areas should be scientifically
analyzed .
 Speed should be restricted at
accident prone areas.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Stringent traffic rules should be


enacted.
 License of those who are involved
the accidents should be suspended
immediately, at least until they
prove that they are not guilty.
 License of those who make serious
accidents should be cancelled.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Roads should be properly


maintained. Permanent contracts /
arrangements should be in place for
maintaining all roads in good
condition 24 hours a day, 365 days
an year. If a gutter is repaired in
time it can save a life !!!
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Health of vehicles should be strictly


enforced.
 Eyes of old aged driving license
holders should be tested
periodically.
 License of drunkard drivers / riders
should be cancelled immediately .
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Judicial Commissions should be setup to


monitor steps taken to control road
accidents.
 Roads should be straightened / widened
wherever required.
 One way traffic should be implemented
as far as possible. Medians should be
constructed in roads with two way traffic.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Footpaths and medians should be


made mandatory for important
roads.

 Zebra crossings should be provided


for pedestrians for safe road
crossings at appropriate places.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Signals for road crossings at


important busy places where a large
number of people have to cross the
road everyday.
 Roads should be properly marked.
Proper sign boards should be
installed.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Humps should be provided at all


important places, accident prone areas.

 Construction, size and shape of the


Humps should be scientific. All the
Contractors of the Public Works / Other
departments should be provided with the
details of scientific Hump construction
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Humps should be clearly marked, to


avoid accidents. Methods of
permanent nature should be followed
in Hump marking. For example white
marble pieces / white color /
fluorescent pigment can be included in
the mixture.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Provision of small pilot humps few


meters before humps can also be
considered to ensure that humps
are not left unnoticed.

 Obstructions on road sides, caused


by unauthorized construction / road
side sales should be eliminated.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Visibilityshould be increased near


curvatures. Sometimes, even
cutting of grass to increase visibility
can help save many lives.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Road Safety Day / Road Safety Week


should be observed in all Schools,
every year. Competitions on Road
Safety Tips, Slogans, Essay, Painting
etc should be conducted for various
categories of students.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 School Buses should be painted with


Bright Yellow color.
 Let ‘Road Safety’ be a mandatory
topic for School Projects for all
classes, every year.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 A small pool of water or a hanging


branch of tree on roadsides can cause
accident, as such obstructions will make
the pedestrians / drivers to take sudden
lateral ( cross ) movement and result in
accidents. Hence any obstruction on
road sides which can cause a cross
movement should be completely rectified
timely.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Blackcolor should not be permitted


for Cycles. Preferred / Default color
for Cycles should be Yellow.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Front and Back of Lorries and


Trucks should be painted with
bright Yellow color to increase
visibility. This will help to prevent
collisions while Lorries and Trucks
are parked on roadside without
parking lights switched on.
How to prevent Road Accidents

 Reflectors
should be fixed on Front
and Back of Trucks and Lorries.

 Accident statistics should be


periodically reviewed to understand
the effect of actions taken.
Corrective steps should be taken
based on these reviews.
