Road accidents are a major problem in India, claiming over 17 lives per hour according to the WHO. The economic loss from accidents is estimated to be close to 3% of India's GDP, or Rs. 55,000 crore annually. Several accidents occurred across various states and highways, killing and injuring many people. Following traffic rules by reducing speeds, wearing seatbelts and helmets, and not overloading vehicles can help reduce the number of deaths from accidents by 20-50%. The government is considering mandating improvements to tire quality and composition to further prevent road accidents.
