WRONGOVERTAKINGIt is skill of the driver to anticipate the speed of another

vehicle and safety overtake the same. Normally drivers do

not take care and overtake the vehicle at wrong speed,

wrong time, and wrong place. The result is smashing other

vehicle or anyobject.

OVERSPEEDING

Speed of the vehicle is prominent factor responsible of

accident. Speed is not only dependant on the type of the

vehicle or capacity of the vehicle but also depends on the

traffic conditions. The technological improvements enhanced

power of the vehicle but roads are not made for over speeding.

DRIVINGAFTERCONSUMINGALCOHOL

Alcohol is not incriminating drink but it is sedative. It

never enhances confidence but looses control over brain.

As a matter of fact it leads the driver to either increaseor reduce the speed. Driving under influence of alcohol

increases the possibility of accidents 25 times.

FATIGUEANDINSUFFICIENTREST

Driving is not a comfortable job but it is exertion.

Driver must take sufficient rest. The owners of the

commercial vehicles many times provoke the drivers tocompromise with the rest by offering more money. It is

wrong.

STEPSTO BETAKEN FORPREVENTINGROAD

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.

Children below a certain age should not be permitted to do

cycling in busy roads / roads where heavy vehicles are plying


12/24

Page 12

Heavy Penalty should be imposed on all those who cross

speed limits.

Two wheeler manufacturers should be asked to design

two wheelers with a designed maximum speed of (say)

50/60 kmph.

Raising of lower age limit for two wheeler and Heavy

Vehicle license to 21.

Helmet should be made compulsory by law in all states


13/24

Page 13

Ensure that ONLY good quality Helmets are available in the

market.

Strict enforcement of existing traffic rules.

All those who do not maintain the safe distance for the speed

should be punished.

Safety awareness should begin from childhood If safety awareness

is imparted at childhood, safety will be a habit.

NATIONALROADSAFETYPOLICY

It may be seen that the vehicle population has been steadily

increasing up with the trend picking up significantly since the

Eighties. Increasing in vehicle population in the face of limited road

space which incidentally is used by a large variety of motorized and

non-motorized traffic, has led the government to accord a highpriority to road safety. A draft Road Safety Policy was therefore

prepared byMinistry in the year 1992.

The policy documents contains the following points :-


15/24

Page 15

1. Classification of the cause of accident and prevention action in terms of

vehicle, driver & engineering factors.

2. List of safety features of vehicle design (e.g. safety belt, air bags,

breaking performance, etc)

3. Fitness certification and maintenance of vehicles.

4. Proper training & effective licensing for drivers.

5. Road design & geometric improvements to compensate for

inadequacies of road users.

6. Warning signs for road users.


16/24

Page 16

7. Design of road junctions.

8. Traffic guidance, road signs, speed limit posts, and other traffic control

devices.

9. Traffic education & campaign on traffic discipline-inclusion of traffic

education in school curriculum, promotion of defensive driving.

10. Emergency medical services with emphasis on saving the lives of

victims, etc.


17/24

Page 17

The original policy draft has aimed at a target for reduction of

fatalities to 25,ooo and road accidents to 2 lakh before the year2001. However, the National Road Safety Council while

adopting the Road Safety Policy stated that target to reduce the

accidents should be related to the number of vehicles and not

the number of persons killed.
