印度拥有世界第二大公路网络，总长度超过600万公里。但这些道路却是无声的杀手，每三分钟就有一人死亡。每天头条新闻都充满了恐怖故事：醉酒司机撞倒行人、超速卡车撞击校车导致儿童死亡、载有数十名乘客的公共汽车坠入深谷。
India has the second-largest road network in the world, spanning over 6 million kilometres. But these roads are silent killers, with one death reported every three minutes. Every day, headlines are filled with horror stories: drunk drivers mowing people down, school buses hit by speeding trucks killing children, buses with dozens of passengers plunging into gorges.
事故的主要原因包括超速、无视交通规则和糟糕的道路设计。除了人类悲剧，道路死亡事故还导致巨大的经济损失，每年使印度经济损失至少占GDP的3%。
Among the biggest causes of accidents are speeding, people ignoring traffic rules and bad road designs. Beyond the human tragedies, road fatalities also lead to enormous economic loss, costing the Indian economy at least 3 percent of GDP annually.
