10. RISK FACTORS
•ⅈ human error accounts for 95% of
all road accidents
•ⅈ The cornerstones of this approach
are safe roads and roadsides, safe
speeds, safe vehicles, and safe road
users, to eliminate fatal crashes
and reduce serious injuries.
•The Safe System
approach:
accommodating human
error
•ⅈ In India, over speeding accounts
for the maximum share of road
accident and road accident deaths
increases about 4%.
•ⅈ Avoid speeding on city roads,
leaving on time to reach on time,
avoid racing with others to avoid
accidents due to over speeding.
Speeding and Reckless
driving
