From last two days Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh is stuck due to the ongoing protest against the death of two school going students.
The accident took place on the footpath of airport road while a bus run through a number of students. As per the witness, this is nothing but careless driving as the victims were nowhere near the risky zone (standing on footpath). Two buses from the same company were competing to overtake one another and went up on the footpath to hit the innocent students.
A report says, total 4284 people expired in 2017 in Bangladesh due to road accidents while the number is 1.25 million for all over the world.
In third world country the number is comparatively high. The reason is lack of competency and education.
Let’s analyze the the reasons of road accidents-
—The tendency not to follow traffic rules
—Lack of knowledge of traffic rules
—Violation of speed limit
—Driving with sleepy eyes
—Driving by taking alcohol
—Careless driving
—Driving without fog light during winter
—Driving unfit vehicle
—Using cell phone during driving
How can we reduce road accidents and casualties?
—Be vigilant
—Understand and Obey traffic rules
—Wearing seat belt while traveling
—Avoid any kind of drugs while driving
—Don’t talk with drivers while driving
—Examine vehicle condition before starting
We have to keep in mind that one accident can cause death not only one person but also destroy the entire family. So, we should take care of ourselves as someone is waiting for us at home.
Let’s educate our drivers not to drive carelessly and obey traffic rules.
Thanks for stopping by.
