BEIJING, Nov. 5, according to Singapore's "Lianhe Zaobao" reported on the 5th, India is the world's most dangerous road, there is an average of four minutes per person died in the road. This is mainly because many people driving without a license, coupled with lax enforcement, highway lack of maintenance, as well as many cars on the highway traveling even crash test can not pass.
In order to reduce road deaths, the new Indian government launched an ambitious five-year plan, the annual number of deaths in traffic accidents should decrease 20%, which is the maximum time since independence in 1947 to amend the law on the road.
Over the past 10 years, there are about 1.2 million Indians lost their lives due to traffic accidents, as well as 550 million people seriously injured.
In many emerging market countries, despite the increase in car sales, however, road deaths is decreasing, but the number of deaths in India in the past 10 years has increased by half.
The Indian government is therefore proposed, for dangerous driving by a substantial increase in fines and terms of imprisonment, the establishment of specialized agencies on road safety, strict regulations on automobile manufacturers, as well as to reduce corruption and other aspects of driver's license testing and other technical means of automatic driving.
