space provided:
THE INDIAN TOLL
According to the Union Transport Ministry, although buses constitute only
of India's vehicles, in 2002 they were responsible for more than 11%
froad accidents and 13% deaths. Around 85,000 people die every year
from road accidents in India and the social cost of all this is a staggering
65000 crores. In India, as in Asia, the driver is the main culprit - 78%
accidents are attributed to the driver's fault. And although there are
rammes for teaching road safety, only a very few drivers attend it.
Sad Dr. Sanjay K. Singh, of IIT, Kanpur and a transport subject expert
mues that bus safety in India will not improve unless drivers are better-
off economically, and not overworked. In addition, he says, road infrastructure
mouct improve with special lanes for cyclists and handcarts, and proper
footpaths for pedestrians.
