Safety

Road Safety is critical issue with more than 1 reported fatality every three minute in India. Thus, there are many dimensions to the problem. Unfortunately, India does not have as many running initiatives or organizations and we too, are not huge to address all issues. India ranks 1st in the number of road accident deaths across the 199 countries reported in the World Road Statistics, 2018 followed by China and US. As per the WHO Global Report on Road Safety 2018, India accounts for almost 11% of the accident-related deaths in the World. Number of ‘Road Traffic Accidents’ in the country have increased from 3,54,796 in 2020 to 4,03,116 and caused 1,55,622 deaths in 2021 (NCRB).
