The government may employ awareness, education, and training as strategies to reduce traffic accidents. We all need to take action to reduce the number of fatalities in traffic accidents since we are aware of how severe this issue is. Various programs are occasionally being implemented by the central government and state governments to lower the number of people who die in traffic accidents. The fatality rate from traffic accidents is where India ranks extremely critically. MORTH is making a lot of effort to cut it.
