Transportation engineering - iAn Overview of Road Accident
IntroductionAn accident is an unexpected occurrence of physical
damage to animate inanimate structure. Road accident inparticular
is now acknowledged to be a global phenomenon with authorities in
virtually all countries of theworld concerned about the growth in
the number of people killed and seriously injured on their
roads.
Overview of accidentSustained declining trends in road
fatalities in developed countries have been attributed to concerted
efforts inmany areas, including effective coordination, community
involvement, research on road safety initiatives, thepromotion of
good road safety practices and improved targeting of resources.
Overview of accidentWorldwide, the number of people killed in
road traffic crashes is estimated to be 1.3 million, with another
50 millioninjured each year. More than 85 percent of these
casualties and 96 percent of total child deaths, occur in low
andmiddle income countries. Road traffic deaths are predicted to
increase by 83 percent in low-income and middleincome countries (if
no major action is taken) and to decrease by 27 percent in
high-income countries over the next 20years.
In BangladeshRoad traffic accidents have now become a great
social concern in Bangladesh and the situation is deteriorating.
Theannual economic wastage occasioned by traffic accidents is
estimated to be in the order of 2 to 3 percent of the GDP.Each
year, there are at least 3,000 fatalities and 3,000 grievous and
simple injuries from around 3,500 police reportedaccidents on
Bangladesh roads.
In BangladeshOther sources estimated the fatalities as high as
from 12,000 to 20,000 per year. Thus,the safety problem is very
severe by international standards with some 60 to 150 fatalities
per 10,000 motor vehiclesin Bangladesh compared to around 25, 16, 2
and 1.4 in India, Srilanka, the USA and UK respectively
