This webinar was hosted on October 17, 2014 and was presented by Amit Bhatt, Strategy Head - Urban Transport, EMBARQ India. Globally, 1.4 million people die each year in road traffic crashes. India accounts for 10% of those fatalities, and the majority of victims are pedestrians and cyclists. The new (draft) Road Transport and Safety Bill 2014, a huge step up from the previous Motor Vehicles Act 1988, was published for public comment by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. Amit Bhatt, who has been actively involved in discussions around this Act, presented the details of the same, highlighting the salient features and what it would mean for India if this bill were to be passed. The webinar addressed key issues relating to the current situation of road transport and safety in India, and showcased a comparison of the existing Motor Vehicles Act and the proposed new one. Amit also discussed the key provisions of the new Bill, its possible impact, and the road ahead.

An Introduction to Motor Vehicles Act, 1988Nilendra Kumar
The familiarization to the Motor Vehicles Act is of relevance to diverse segments of the community. The existing law addresses different aspects of the statute. The presentation is an attempt to introduce the law.
The Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 shows various clauses and aspects about the vehicle permit.
Under Section 66 (Necessity for permits) the law states that “no owner of a motor vehicle shall use or permit the use of the vehicle as a transport vehicle in any public place whether or not such vehicle is actually carrying any passengers or goods save in accordance with the conditions of a permit granted or countersigned by a Regional or State Transport Authority or any prescribed authority authorizing him the use of the vehicle in that place in the manner in which the vehicle is being used.”

Indian Railways has a total route network of about 64,600 kilometers (km) spread across 7,146 stations and operates more than 19,000 trains every day. Over 30 million passengers travel by trains on a daily basis in India and around 975.2 million tonnes (MT) of freight was transported via trains in FY12.
The revenues of Indian Railways are expected to expand at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1 per cent during FY07-14. Freight is the major revenue earning segment for the railways, accounting for 70.6 per cent of the total revenues in FY12.
Passenger traffic went up by more than 15 times over FY1951-FY12. Increasing incomes, both urban and rural, have made rail travel affordable to a large number of Indians. Urban population in India increased from 17.3 per cent of the total population in 1951 to 31.2 per cent in 2011; this has led to increase in traffic between urban and rural areas in the country.
With rapid economic growth and increasing industrialisation, freight traffic is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.6 per cent during FY12-17 to touch 1,405 million metric tonnes (MMT) by FY17. Indian Railways has set a target of having a freight market share of 50 per cent by 2030 from 30 per cent in 2010.
The Government of India is investing heavily in building rail infrastructure in the country and plans to invest US$ 153 billion during the 12th Five Year Plan.
Air pollution is the introduction of particulates, biological molecules, or other harmful materials into the Earth's atmosphere, possibly causing disease, death to humans, damage to other living organisms such as food crops, or natural or built environment.
The atmosphere is a complex natural gaseous system that is essential to support life on planet Earth. Stratospheric depletion due to air pollution has been recognized as a threat to human health as well as to the Earth's ecosystems.
Indoor air pollution and urban air quality are listed as two of the world’s worst toxic pollution problems in the 2008 Institute World’s Worst Polluted Places report. According to the 2014 WHO report, air pollution in 2012 caused the deaths of around 7 million people worldwide.

PakWheels.com has been conducting automobile industry surveys during recent years and is a pioneer in the field. This edition of survey covered all aspects of the industry, mainstream and otherwise.
The data that we’ve gathered covers the public’s spending habits, driving behavior, expectations and routine practices in the automobile sector in Pakistan. Products associated with the automobile sector were also included in the survey, including motor oils, insurance companies, tracking companies, tyre companies, battery companies and radio channels.
The first part of the survey asked users to rate the cars that they own or use the most. These ratings, which were entirely based on users’ experiences, lead to the crowning of awards.
The second part of the survey included users’ perceptions, regardless of what brands they used or owned. This gave us insights into people’s viewpoints about different brands available in Pakistan.
This report analyzes all data collected and extracts useful information for consumers and stakeholders of the automobile industry in Pakistan.
The objective of this paper is to prepare a draft on policy recommendation for Development of Charging Infrastructure and Registration of E-Ricks in Delhi. Although these vehicles are eco-friendly, more efficient and generate employment; there are no rules and regulations in place to govern this market. This in turn contributing to traffic congestion of already congested Delhi roads and unruly driving, risking the life of commuters and bystanders. Charging of E-Ricks are taking place at the residence of the driver with domestic connection at domestic tariff. Due to this Delhi DISCOMs are losing about Rs. 1.5 million per day. Also these vehicles run on lead acid batteries, recycling and disposal of which cause many environmental and Health hazards.

Multimodal transport is essentially an international through-transport combination with various modes of transport such as ship, rail, truck, airplane, etc., primarily through the use of containers.
Multimodal Transport: Where the carrier organising the transport takes responsibility for the entire door-to-door transport and issues a multimodal transport document.
A multimodal transport operator (MTO) acts as a principal and therefore as a “carrier”, because the MTO contracts with the shipper to carry goods by one or more modes of transport as may be necessary. The MTO has accepted total responsibility and liability to perform the transport contract; he has become the sole interface point for the shipper’s transport function.

Why India road transport and safety 2014 matters for citizens - EmbarqRohit Sharma
The last two decades have seen a dramatic increase in the overall number of vehicles used for road transport in India.
The total number of vehicles is expected to increase 3-4x to 500-600 million by 2030.
An effective road safety management system covers three linked elements: institutional management functions, interventions and results. All countries should ensure that an effective road safety management system is in place.
As we know in India road accidents plays very brutal role everyday, India lost a healthy people everyday because of silly mistakes which will not considerable. If government of India and People conscious about all road safety and improvement in traffic rules and awareness in people about road safety, we will save a valuable life's.
Road safety in India: Challenges and opportunities (2009)Rohit Sharma
The present report was designed to analyze the traffic safety situation in India, and to identify countermeasures for areas in which the total harm caused by crashes can be substantially and readily reduced. The report focuses on two aspects of traffic safety in India: challenges and opportunities. The first part of the report provides a comprehensive analysis of the current traffic safety situation in India. It is pointed out in this analysis that fatality rates have increased both on highways and in urban areas during the past few years. Theoretical models suggest that the number of fatalities in India is not likely to start to decline for many years to come unless new policies are implemented. Based on the present analysis, the following six areas are identified as having potential for substantially reducing fatalities in India: (1) pedestrians and other non-motorists in urban areas, (2) pedestrians, other non-motorists, and slow vehicles on highways, (3) motorcycles and small cars in urban areas, (4) over-involvement of trucks
and buses, (5) nighttime driving, and (6) wrong-way drivers on divided highways. The second part of the report outlines several promising countermeasures for each of these
six areas. The third part of the report presents a brief comparison of major traffic safety challenges in India and China.
Road transport india safety bill dunu roy itp jan 2016Arnaud Renard
At the beginning of January, Road
and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari
expressed hope that the Road Transport
and Safety Bill 2015 would be passed
in the Budget session itself. The new Road
Safety Bill seems more than necessary in
India. It is currently still the country with
the most dangerous roads in the world.
However, beyond road safety, there are
major economic issues. Indeed, there is
a risk to destroy the public purpose and
to protect private interests at the cost of
the public exchequer. It would be better if
the public transportation system remains
under the aegis of the States, rather than
under the management of the central government
outsourcing to private firms.

Road Transport & Safety Bill 2014 ( Draft )Avinash Kumar
The Road Transport and Safety Bill, 2014 envisions to provide a framework for safer, faster, cost-effective and inclusive movement of passengers and freight in India, thus enabling the mission of 'Make In India'. It is currently in draft stage and is prepared by Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, Government of India, which will extend to the whole of India if enacted.
India has the second largest road network in the world, spanning a total of 4.7 million kilometres. Roads in India bear about 85 per cent of the country's passenger traffic and 60 per cent of freight traffic.
The value of total roads and bridges infrastructure is expected to touch US$ 19.2 billion by 2017. The key factors responsible for driving demand in the sector have been the rise in two-wheeler and four-wheeler vehicles and increasing freight traffic. Rising per-capita incomes and a growing middle class coupled with easier access to finance and a wider price range of vehicles have boosted car sales. During 2007-14, the sales of passenger and commercial vehicles are expected to increase at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15 and 13.5 per cent to touch 3.5 and 0.85 million respectively.
Infrastructure spending by the government is expected to touch US$ 1 trillion in the next Five-Year Plan (FY13-17). To promote the sector, the government has allowed 100 per cent foreign direct investment (FDI) under the automatic route. Development of national highways through Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is expected to remain the key focus area for the government. During the next five years, investments through PPP are expected to be over USD41 billion for national highways and around USD10 billion for state highways.
