Abstract

 Road accidents, which kill countless people  worldwide, are one of the greatest man-made disasters we  face today in the world of current revenue sources. Road  accidents are still a significant barrier to sustainable human  progress, particularly in developing nations. After extensive  research in this area, practical experience has shown that  such annihilation can be reduced to a minimum to some  extent, and industrialised nations have so offered several  safety precautions. Road accidents are still a major issue, or  one could even say a threat to India's ability to advance  economically and socially. Every year, more than 1 lakh  persons in India are killed in traffic accidents and many  more suffer injuries. In the last five years, there have been  more than 8000 road accidents in Srinagar, the capital of  Jammu and Kashmir during the summer. Therefore, it is  imperative to adopt a mandatory action to improve the city's  climate for road safety. Therefore, it is imperative that all  relevant institutions, including those related to government,  law enforcement, and other institutional mechanisms, come  together for this purpose in order to reach a better decision  that will either end accidents altogether or at the very least  reduce their frequency to the absolute minimum.
