TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - Mission safe roads: a war against the menace JO - Indian highways A1 - Sikdar, P. SP - 77 EP - 83 VL - 30 IS - 1 N2 - This article addresses the need in India for a system of road safety measures. The author sees this in terms of a national mission, to be administered at national and regional level. Aspects considered are the education of school children in road safety; training of traffic police; training of truck and bus drivers; reorganization of the vehicle and driver licensing systems; an accident data collection system; and more enforceable and effective legislation against offenders. Such a national mission would require an efficient publicity campaign.
