In the last decade alone, India lost 1.5 million people to preventable road crashes and another 5.3 million have been left disabled for life. India has the highest number of road crash fatalities, with a crash occurring every minute and one death every three minutes. While it has just 1% of the world’s vehicles, India accounts for over 10% of global road crash fatalities – the highest in the world.

India, however ranks 1 in the number of road accident deaths across the 199 countries reported in the World Road Statistics, 2018 followed by China and US. As per the WHO Global Report on Road Safety 2018, India accounts for almost 11% of the accident related deaths in the World. 

Right to life and safety is a fundamental right of any citizen of India. This is guaranteed under the Indian Constitution. Anything which is hazardous to human beings and violates the right to life, such as road safety is covered under this Right. Road Safety is critical issue with more than 1 reported fatality every three minute in India. Thus there are many dimensions to the problem. Unfortunately India does not have as many running initiatives or organizations and we too, are not huge to address all issues. We thus have focused only on behavioral aspect of driving training, which nobody is currently into and we believe, this is the most critical area which if addressed properly has the potential to significantly bring down casualties. 

Road Safety Partnership

There are many causes to the accident, but Drivers’ fault has been revealed as the single most responsible factor for road accidents. Drivers fault accounted almost 84 % of total road accident. In many states it is much more in our Country. The drivers are neglected lot. They suffer from public apathy, harassments while driving, get attracted into alcohol, and smoking, STD’s, stress because of long days away from families, and all these contribute to un-safe driving. Behavioral interventions designed in this program can help them overcome some of these by incentivizing them doing it.

Road Safety is critical issue with more than 1 reported fatality every three minute in India. Thus there are many dimensions to the problem. Unfortunately India does not have as many running initiatives or organizations and we too, are not huge to address all issues. We thus have focused only on behavioral aspect of driving training, which nobody is currently into and we believe, this is the most critical area which if addressed properly has the potential to significantly bring down casualties. 

We thus have designed initiative around RSDAS – which is Road Safety Driver Accreditation System – which actually trains drivers on why to drive safely, rather than how to drive. This is basically 20 hours of training programme under neurolinguistics model and it can be customized as per specific requirements.

Road Safety Award

Road Safety Partnership champions RSDAS as leading cause and believes RSDAS will help reduce road fatalities by skilling drivers through behavioural intervention. There is no comprehensive, self-sustainable, scalable initiative currently in India and as effective and productive as RSDAS.
