Abstract

There are more than 2.2 million major road accidents in the United States every year. Which is the highest in the world. But the surprising thing is that road accidents in India are about four times less than in the US, but the number of deaths is more than one and a half lakh a year. At the same time, the number of people who die in more than 22 lakh road accidents in America is only 34 thousand. According to the comparative report, the number of deaths in 2.2 million road accidents in the US is close to 37 thousand in a year. In India, about 30 percent of the 480,000 road accidents i.e. 1.5 lakh people lose their lives. This figure is number one in the whole world.
Japan has the second-highest number of road accidents in the world. There are 500,000 small and big road accidents in Japan and the number of people who die from road accidents here is only 4,500 a year.
