The aim of the Road Safety World Series is to drive social change in the country and change people’s outlook towards road safety.

WHY ROAD SAFETY? Every year India kills a decent sized European nation on its roads. In India, one person dies every four minutes. Every hundred people dying in the world, 30 are Indians. It is more alarming that as per the World Research Institute, by 2020, the death toll in road accidents every year will reach up to 2.2 million and 50 per cent will be Indians. Every year around 150000 people are killed and more than 450000 people are critically injured in our country in road accidents.
