Despite India's relatively low car ownership rate, the country grapples with an alarming fatality rate stemming from road accidents. Despite car ownership standing at just 7.5%, India records a fatality rate of 15 per lakh people.
Following a decline during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the risks of road accidents and road accident fatalities have been steadily rising once again.
Reckless driving behaviors, particularly overspeeding, emerge as the primary cause of these accidents, contributing to a staggering 72.4% of incidents in 2022. Furthermore, states boasting superior road networks like Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Karnataka paradoxically exhibit higher fatality rates.
Embracing safe driving practices is essential for mitigating the alarming fatality rates on Indian roads. As traffic density grows and road conditions vary, it becomes imperative to abide by traffic regulations, adhere to appropriate speeds, and exercise caution consistently.
Tackling minor instances of unsafe driving behaviors is crucial for preventing more significant accidents and fatalities on the roads. While seemingly insignificant, actions like briefly using mobile phones or driving at excessively high speeds on expressways or highways can have far-reaching consequences. These seemingly minor infractions can compromise overall road safety and pave the way for more severe accidents.
Providing drivers with education on defensive driving techniques, such as maintaining safe distances, utilizing indicators, and yielding the right of way, can greatly reduce risks. By consistently following safe practices in daily situations, drivers become more aware of potential risks and develop habits that lower the chances of major accidents. Ultimately, the collective effort to address minor unsafe behaviors leads to a substantial decrease in the frequency and severity of accidents, ultimately saving lives and creating safer roads for all.
