Road Accidents India: The government is making many efforts to improve road safety in India. But despite this, road accidents remain a big problem. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has released a report regarding road accident. It has been told in this report that more than 1.72 lakh people died in a road accident in 2023. This figure is very shocking. That is, 474 people die every day on the roads. That is, about 20 people died every hour.
Most death in which state
If we talk only road accidents, then Tamil Nadu has the highest number of road accidents. But if we talk about death in road accidents, then the name of Uttar Pradesh comes at the top.
Top five states die in most road accidents
Uttar Pradesh has died in the highest number of road accidents in 2023. There have been 23,652 deaths here. After this, Tamil Nadu comes in second place. There have been 18,347 deaths here. After this, Maharashtra comes in third place and 15,366 deaths have occurred here. In fourth place, Madhya Pradesh comes to Madhya Pradesh with 13,798 deaths and in fifth place with 12,321 deaths to Karnataka. Let us tell you that the biggest increase has been seen in the death of those driving two wheelers. About 70% of these people did not wear helmets.
The main cause of road accident
In the report of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the main reason for the accident has been given to speed up and drive in the wrong direction. Along with this, ignoring security rules is also playing a very important role in death in road habits. The Indian government has set a target to work up to 50% of the road accident by 2030. But to get this, the general public will have to strictly follow the traffic law. Along with this, the government is also going to start a national road safety mission to monitor public awareness and accidents.
