The amount of time saved per 10kmph increase in speed is negligible. But that increases our stopping distance and reaction time and increases risk exponentially. As in a crash,the entire kinetic energy (KE) needs to be absorbed by the car,where KE is velocity squared. #RoadSafety

We don't lose anything by slowing down. What to observe? ⛳ Builtup Area ⛳ People on either side ⛳ A biker trying to cross ⛳ Stray Dog But, the end result 🥴🥲 Slow down a bit and cover brakes,when you see hazards. #HazardPerception @SafetyOverSpeed @ReduceRoadRisks

Whenever traffic is slowing down on the highway,if we are at the end of the queue : 1. Stay Alert 2. Have #CAS on sides by not having another vehicle in parallel 3. Being on the left lane,helps us to use shoulder as we don't have escape route on right lane

Unfortunate crashes. 1. Mirrors are pointed towards the biker's face. 🥲 2. Bikers are safe on the left lane 3. The biker changed lanes when the bus was so close, improper mirror usage 4. No #CAS on the sides. Another set of bikers are going on the left parallel to them. Never…

To reduce the risk of having an underride crash,car drivers must recognise the type of driving behaviour that puts them under the risk of having an underride crash. I've written the article keeping in view what can be done by car drivers.

The biker is not looking at all but could the car driver avoid it? Remember that, the vision block concept is very essential in India. Watch another video below. @SafetyOverSpeed @ReduceRoadRisks @Team_Road_Squad

Sorry for the image quality. I was walking on the footpath and clicked this on Mysuru Road. The bus had stopped for boarding passengers. A wrong side biker waits in front of the bus to drive on the wrong side. If the bus starts and hits him,the bus driver will be blamed. If the…

Despite the stupidity of the biker,the car driver could've avoided it easily. The car driver is not in proper lane position to take a right turn/U turn. The car should be in right lane and position towards the right. As usual,when the biker saw a gap,he tried to exploit it.

@chiragbarjatyaa As per MVDR, we shouldn't enter an intersection if there are already vehicles in it,even if you have a green light to proceed.

If many people start driving like this, it will be difficult to manage,sir. Please put some measures to prevent driving like this. Vehicles can topple if they hit something on the median. KA05NH2921 KA51N07962 @blrcitytraffic @alokkumar6994 @btppubliceye

On narrow undivided roads, U turn needs to be done carefully. It's better to do a 3 point turn here,if it's possible to do. Or drive straight to the nearest junction/roundabout and then take a U turn. #RoadSafety @SafetyOverSpeed @Team_Road_Squad
