I am pretty sure that each and every day in every city and town in India has at least one death in an accident. Sometimes a single day eats up the lives of many people. What is sad is that eighty percent of these deaths are totally preventable by the actions of people who drive these vehicles. Even the ones due to bad infrastructure like pot holes are preventable if the Govt, local bodies and public really care
It breaks my heart to read and see what is happening every single day. And everyday I re-live the death of my daughter.
In the horrific accident that happened on June 23, where eight young children died, three families lost both their children. The parents will most certainly go mad..I cannot begin to understand their pain.
This is a collective shame on us as a country and people. When is the govt going to bring in the road safety bill promised in 2014?
Yoga day is a great idea..When will we have the ‘ su yoga’ of having better roads? Better Road safety implementation ? When ? When?? When???
