Maximum people including me, believe in luck or fate but the problem is that, when something goes wrong, we blame it on fate, rather than accepting our fault. For example, if a meteor falls on one’s house and destroys it. It can be said that it’s bad luck because there was no way by which the person could have guessed its coming or could have done anything to protect his/her house but if you are going on your bike and due to some reason, your bike slips and you get a serious head injury. Is it luck? I am afraid it’s not, It’s gross negligence. If you would have worn your helmet, the head injury would have been avoided.
According to a credible research, most of the road accidents could be avoided or their effect could be minimised if proper precautions are taken. The issue is that maximum people are aware of the safety precautions and also traffic rules and regulations but they consider it (especially youngsters) cool to not to follow them. How this trend started and gained momentum can be a matter of debate but the fact is this problem has taken monstrous proportions and if something is not done urgently, then very soon things will go out of control.
I think no amount of rules and regulations can solve this problem. For this the mentality of the public (especially youngsters) needs to be changed. I think, this could be done by creating awareness among public through various awareness programs. Let’s hope that in the coming time better sense will prevail among the public and the number of deaths caused by the road accidents will come down.

Here is your answer of 200 words.
Explanation:
Road safety refers to the methods used to prevent the road crashes and protect the road users such as pedestrians, cyclists, bikers and other vehicle passengers and drivers from getting injured or killed on the road. The key goal of road safety measures is to minimize the impact speed that affects the severity of the accident. It is estimated that around 1 million people die each year in road accidents.
The issue is more critical in developing nations. Serious injuries are caused due to severe speeding up. The speed of the vehicle should be limited as to ease the impact speed that can cause severe injuries to the victims on both the sides. The other factors that can cause accidents are driver’s illness or fatigue, drink and drive, vehicle break fails or steering failure and poor roadside zones to name a few.
Safety can be improved by responsible driving and following traffic rules or by designing the vehicles in a way to decrease the intensity of the crash. Traffic calming measures are used to improve the road safety. The modern paradigm of road safety replaces the killed or seriously injured (KSI) rates with the accident rates i.e. accidents per million vehicle miles. With improvement in the road constructions there are several safety related methods and systems designed to improve the road safety.
