Introduction
India loses more than 500 lives
every single day in road accidents. In 2025 alone, over 1.83 lakh people were
killed and more than five lakh accidents occurred. Every year nearly four to
five lakh people are injured — many permanently handicapped. Behind each
statistic stands a devastated family: children who lose parents, parents who
lose children, and breadwinners whose absence plunges entire households into
poverty.
The economic cost is staggering.
Road accidents drain an estimated 3 per cent of India’s GDP every year through
lost lives, medical expenses, insurance claims, destroyed goods, damaged
vehicles, and lost productivity. Thousands of tonnes of goods are ruined daily.
Livelihoods of transporters, drivers, and small traders are destroyed.
Livestock worth crores is lost in animal-related crashes. The trauma, lifelong
disability, mental stress, and broken families create an invisible but
continuous national wound.
While the government plans to
introduce vehicle-to-vehicle communication and intelligent transport systems
from 2028, technology alone cannot solve the crisis. Most accidents still occur
because of human fatigue, poorly maintained vehicles, unsafe road conditions,
drunk or untrained drivers, loose animals, mid-road stops, overcrowding, lack
of emergency care, and the absence of proper resting and parking discipline.
These root causes will continue to kill even after intelligent systems become
operational.
Therefore strong, integrated, and
fully enforceable measures that attack human fatigue and every physical and
behavioural condition that causes accidents are fundamental and cannot wait.
Only a closed-loop digital system covering driver duty limits, anti-drowsiness
technology, maintenance linked to fuel, real-time monitoring, emergency
response, better lighting and cabin comfort, reduction of vehicle numbers,
animal control, alcohol and behavioural restrictions, road condition
monitoring, healthy food discipline, helmet and seat-belt enforcement, trauma
care network, proper resting places, stringent punishment for sub-standard
parts, and a national parking system can stop this daily massacre.
1. Strict
Limits on Driver Duty Hours and Mandatory Rest (Core Fatigue Control)
a) Maximum driving time: 8
hours per day
After 8 hours of continuous
driving, the brain’s reaction time slows down dramatically — almost equal to a
person who has consumed alcohol. The driver starts missing road signs,
misjudges distances, and can fall into microsleep without realising. Limiting
duty to 8 hours prevents the body from reaching this dangerous exhaustion zone
and is the single strongest protection against fatigue-related deaths.
b) Mandatory 15-minute break
every 2 hours or after every 120 km
Continuous sitting reduces blood
flow to the brain and eyes. A short 15-minute break (walking, stretching,
drinking water) immediately refreshes alertness, reduces eye strain, and stops
fatigue from building up slowly. These micro-rests are scientifically proven to
keep drivers sharp for longer.
c) Government App that
automatically alerts if the limit is exceeded
Human nature always says “just
one more hour”. The App removes this temptation by sending automatic alerts to
both the driver and the central control room the moment the limit is crossed.
Technology becomes the strict supervisor that never compromises.
d) Mandatory driver change
every 8 hours for long-distance trucks
One driver cannot safely cover
1000–1500 km. Fresh drivers every 8 hours keep goods moving on time while
completely eliminating the pressure to drive while half-asleep.
e) Highway Hubs every 25 km
with food, toilets, medical facilities and rest areas
When rest places are far, drivers
avoid stopping. Easy, clean and frequent hubs make resting practical and
attractive instead of a burden.
f) Sleep-monitoring watch-like
devices linked to driving licence and insurance
Many drivers sleep only 3–5 hours
or do side jobs at night. The watch records actual sleep hours. If a driver has
not slept properly (8–10 hours), the system can temporarily block driving
permission and affect insurance. This forces real rest and stops drivers from
taking alternative night work.
g) Integrated App for
freelance/rested drivers
Drivers who have rested fully
(minimum 12 hours) can register as available. When one driver’s 8 hours finish,
the vehicle can immediately get a fresh driver from the nearest hub. This ends
the dangerous culture of “somehow keep driving”.
h) Equal treatment with all
other professions
Every other profession in the
country is limited to 8 hours of work per day (dawn-to-dusk or fixed night
shifts of 8 hours). Driving on highways is one of the riskiest jobs, yet
self-driven cars, owner-driven trucks and employed drivers are still allowed to
work without any time restriction. This double standard must end. Strict 8-hour
duty must be enforced uniformly for every person who takes the steering —
whether private, commercial or owner-driven.
i) End of excessive hours for
private and taxi drivers
In cities, private drivers are
routinely made to work 12–16 hours (sometimes 18 hours), whether they are
driving, sitting idle, or taken on continuous outstation highway trips with
little sleep. Taxi and cab drivers often drive 8–20 hours a day to maximise
trips and earnings. Treating drivers like machines that can work round the
clock is inhuman and directly causes accidents. From now on, no private driver,
taxi driver or cab driver shall be allowed to exceed 8 hours of duty in a day.
j) Subsidised nutritious food
for all drivers
Government shall establish
PDS-supported / subsidised food canteens in cities and at every Highway Hub.
All drivers will be able to pre-book and get freshly cooked nutritious
breakfast, lunch and dinner at affordable rates. Employers must provide free breakfast
and lunch/dinner through online coupons for pre-booking meals. This ensures
equal treatment, fresh food, no rush at one eatery (the rush is divided among
several eateries during the same time period according to seating capacity),
reduced waiting time, better planning for drivers, passengers and food courts,
reduced wastage, and encouragement of more food courts in preferred areas. All
food courts on highways must be located only inside Highway Hubs to ensure no
stopping on the roadside.
k) Fixed and compulsory meal
break timings
Highway drivers must halt at
designated times for proper lunch and dinner breaks. These meal breaks will be
monitored through the Government App and GPS so that drivers actually stop, eat
calmly, and rest instead of eating while driving or skipping meals.
2. Mandatory
Anti-Drowsiness / Night Collision Avoidance Devices
a) Anti-drowsiness devices
that monitor eye pupil and eyelid movement
Even a well-rested driver can
feel sleepy for 2–3 seconds. Those few seconds are enough for a fatal crash.
The device detects closing eyes or prolonged looking away and sounds a strong
alarm instantly while recording the event.
b) Retrofitting existing
vehicles + mandatory in all new vehicles
Complete coverage is essential.
Only new vehicles having the device is not enough — old vehicles must also be
upgraded so that every highway vehicle is protected.
c) Combined with dash cameras
and GPS
Every drowsiness event is
recorded with location and time. This creates strong evidence and makes drivers
more careful because they know everything is being watched.
3. Mandatory
Periodic Vehicle Maintenance Linked to Fuel Supply
a) Central Petroleum Fuels
Network Authority (CPFNA) issues fuel only after biometric authentication
Fuel is the lifeline of every vehicle. Linking it to licence + registration +
maintenance record makes compliance compulsory. No maintenance = no fuel.
The CPFNA is the complete
national digital integration of all fuel stations (petrol, diesel and gas), all
State Road Transport Authorities and the National Vehicle Registry, and all
authorised OEM service stations. Only OEM-authorised service stations are
allowed to operate and must upload real-time data of every service, repair and
spare part used. At every fuel top-up the system automatically verifies the
driver’s biometric, vehicle registration, maintenance status and records the
live odometer reading. GPS continuously tracks actual kilometres travelled. The
system matches this accurate mileage with the OEM service manual and blocks
fuel if any scheduled service (engine oil, brake fluid, etc.) is overdue. This
removes human discretion and corruption, makes odometer tampering useless,
prevents use of duplicate parts, creates a permanent digital history of every
vehicle, reduces pollution, and forces timely servicing.
b) Fuel blocked if mandatory
periodic maintenance is not done
This is the strongest enforcement
tool. Vehicle owners will automatically keep their vehicles serviced because
otherwise they cannot run.
c) Only Authorised Service
Stations and Controlled Onsite Service
Henceforth the government
completely bans all unauthorised roadside mechanics from carrying out any
repair or service work. Only OEM-authorised and government-registered service
stations that are trained and certified by the vehicle manufacturers and linked
to the official network are permitted to function. Every service request, the
exact nature of work performed, spare parts used and services availed are
recorded online in real time and automatically shared with CPFNA and the
concerned RTA. All authorised stations must operate under continuous CCTV
surveillance and maintain real-time digital inventory of genuine parts.
Vehicles requiring minor onsite assistance (such as tyre pressure correction)
shall be attended to only inside government-authorised parking lots or
designated safe zones — never in the middle of the road or in flowing traffic.
In case of tyre deflation or any breakdown in the middle of traffic, the
vehicle must be immediately towed to the nearest authorised safe area before
any service work is carried out.
d) Ban on sale of engine oil,
brake oil and lubricants to individuals
Ordinary people buying loose oils
often get adulterated or low-quality products that damage brakes and engines.
Only authorised workshops can purchase them.
e) Only genuine OEM spare
parts allowed + discarded parts accounted for
Duplicate parts fail suddenly and
cause accidents. Tracking of old parts prevents recycling of dangerous
components.
f) Daily pre-start checklist
via App with photos
Makes the driver personally
responsible every single day. Photos create proof. Vehicle cannot legally start
without uploading the report. This ensures basic safety checks are never
skipped.
Standard Daily Pre-Start
Checklist via Government App (with Photos)
- Tyres & Wheels – Tyre pressure (all four tyres +
spare) measured with gauge and photo of reading, visual check for cuts,
bulges, cracks or embedded objects, tread depth, wheel nuts/bolts
tightness, spare tyre condition and pressure.
- Brakes – Brake oil/brake fluid level (photo of
reservoir), brake pedal feel, handbrake working properly, visual check of
brake pads/discs, no brake fluid leakage.
- Engine & Fluids – Engine oil level (photo of
dipstick), coolant/radiator water level, clutch oil/hydraulic fluid level,
power steering oil level, no visible leakage under the engine.
- Lights & Electrical – Headlights (low and high
beam), parking lights, indicators (left and right, front and rear), brake
lights, reverse light, fog lights, cabin and dashboard lights, horn.
- Mirrors & Visibility – Left side mirror, right
side mirror and rear-view mirror clean, properly adjusted and firmly fixed
(photo of all three), windscreen clean, wiper blades and washer fluid,
number plates clean and visible.
- Body & Safety Equipment – Seat belts (all seats)
condition and functioning, first-aid kit present and complete, fire
extinguisher (pressure in green zone), emergency triangle, tool kit and
jack, emergency light working.
- Documents & Digital – Driving licence, vehicle
RC, insurance, pollution certificate valid, GPS device and dash camera
working, sleep-monitoring wearable charged and paired.
- Final Operational Checks – Clutch pedal free play and
smooth operation, accelerator smooth response, steering free play within
limit, all doors, bonnet and boot close properly, no unusual noise when
engine is started.
The driver takes clear photos of
each critical item, uploads the complete checklist on the Government App. The
App uses AI to verify photos and completeness. Only after successful
verification is the vehicle allowed to start legal operation for that day. All
records are stored permanently and linked to the vehicle registration and
driver’s licence.
4. Real-Time
Monitoring, GPS, and Daily Reporting
a) Mandatory Functional GPS
System
Every vehicle (personal,
commercial, passenger or goods) must be fitted with a fully functional,
tamper-proof GPS system that is permanently synced with the vehicle
registration, the driver’s licence and the driver’s registered mobile number.
All three must operate in parallel at all times. Without a working GPS the
vehicle will be denied fuel at every petrol pump, will not be allocated any
parking space, and will be stopped at the nearest Highway Hub until the GPS is
repaired and verified.
The AI-powered GPS automatically
assigns the safest and most efficient route. In case of traffic congestion it
guides the driver to alternative safe routes. In case of an accident it
instantly diverts traffic. Drivers must follow only the pre-assigned route; any
deviation is immediately recorded. The system continuously records speed
between starting and ending point, total journey hours and every stoppage.
Unauthorised stoppages are automatically detected. By linking GPS with the
speed governor it ensures even and legal speed throughout the journey.
Satellite tracking makes it impossible to switch off the device, take wrong
routes, drive on the wrong side, or escape after an offence. Any attempt to
tamper with or switch off the GPS automatically cuts the vehicle’s ignition.
This guarantees the GPS remains 100% functional and online in real time.
b) Recording of starting
point, ending point + kilometres + live biometric driver verification midway
Ensures the correct rested driver is actually driving. Starting and ending
point declaration + daily kilometre log make it impossible to hide extra
driving or take wrong routes.
c) Daily App-based log of
total kilometres and fitness checks
Prevents odometer tampering. When
starting and ending kilometres are recorded every day along with photos, any
manipulation becomes visible immediately.
d) High-end AI CCTV cameras
along all highways
Continuous surveillance deters
rash driving and helps in quick response during accidents.
e) GPS-based automatic toll
collection (no stopping)
Toll is collected digitally at
the beginning or automatically billed at the next fuel top-up. This removes
long queues, reduces congestion and the risk of accidents at toll plazas, and
gives free-flow movement on highways.
f) Mandatory dash cameras
Drivers become much more careful
because they know every action is being recorded. Rash driving, sudden lane
changes and mobile use reduce drastically. AI can randomly analyse footage to
assess driving skill.
5. Emergency
Response and On-Road Breakdowns
a) Prevention of Breakdowns
and Emergency Fuel Delivery
Government policy is clear: no
vehicle should break down on the road or highway due to low fuel, completely
exhausted fuel, deflated tyres or sudden engine failure caused by neglect. This
is achieved through mandatory periodic maintenance, daily driver checks of tyre
pressure and fuel, accurate kilometre tracking by GPS and odometer recording at
every fuel station, and automatic low-fuel alerts from CPFNA before the journey
starts.
Even after proper maintenance, if
a rare malfunction causes fuel exhaustion, the driver can request emergency
fuel delivery. Government-authorised supply will reach the spot and provide
fuel at normal rates; if the vehicle has completely broken down, professional
towing will also be arranged. However, if the driver had already received a
low-fuel warning and ignored it, heavy penalty will apply. Self-towing and
self-repair remain completely banned. Only authorised professional teams are
allowed to handle any onsite assistance or towing.
b) Immediate medical emergency
reporting via App
One tap brings ambulance and help
to the exact location, saving golden hours.
c) Mandatory pee/vomit bags +
complete ban on mid-road stopping
Sudden stops for urination or
vomiting are a major cause of rear-end collisions. Bags + rule to reach nearest
hub eliminate this risk.
d) Battery-operated emergency
light visible from 1000 metres
Warns other drivers from a long
distance when a vehicle is stranded, preventing high-speed crashes into
stationary vehicles.
6. Lighting,
Visibility, and Cabin Comfort
a) Highway and Vehicle
Lighting Standards
Drivers are naturally adapted to
sunlight. The human body and eyes are designed for the spectrum of natural
daylight, which causes significantly less fatigue. In contrast, blue-rich LED
lights create higher eye strain, glare and faster onset of drowsiness —
especially during night driving, in rain and in fog. Using LED lights on
highways merely to reduce electricity bills is a serious mistake. The energy
saving is negligible compared with the enormous cost of accidents, loss of
human lives, destruction of goods and lifelong suffering of families. Therefore
the government must replace all blue LED highway lights with Sodium Vapour or
Metal Halide lamps fitted with energy-saving electronic chokes.
Changing original OEM headlights
to high-beam or non-standard high-intensity lights is a criminal offence. The
vehicle shall be impounded, restored to original OEM lighting at the owner’s
cost, and heavy penalties imposed. Fancy lights, blue lights, red lights or any
non-standard lighting inside the cabin, on the body or at the rear of the
vehicle are completely banned. Blinking lights, disco-style lights and loud
music systems are prohibited. If music is required, every vehicle must be
fitted only with a standard regulated-decibel music system.
b) Automatic fog-light systems
In fog-prone areas, lights switch
on automatically, improving visibility when the driver may not react quickly.
c) Mandatory air-conditioning
with temperature maintained at 24–28°C and real-time monitoring via dash
cameras
Heat inside the cabin causes
sweating, irritation, fatigue and windshield fogging. Controlled temperature
keeps the driver comfortable and alert.
d) Mandatory day-and-night
anti-glare glasses
These glasses reduce eye fatigue
from sun heat and radiation during the day and minimise glare from oncoming
vehicle lights at night.
e) 100% functional mirrors
confirmed via App
Blind spots due to broken or
wrongly adjusted mirrors cause many side-swipe and lane-change accidents.
f) Ergonomic seat designs +
GPS-enforced 15-minute rest
Poor seats cause back and neck
pain that distracts the driver. Proper seats + compulsory rest stops keep the
body fresh.
g) Water-flow sections on
highways in summer
Hot tyres can burst. Water
sections cool the tyres and naturally force vehicles to slow down.
7. Reducing
Vehicle Numbers on Highways
a) Mandatory RO-RO shipping
and RO-RO trains
It is high time the government
adopts a much stricter policy to shift long-distance movement of goods from
roads to waterways, inland waterways and trains through large-scale
introduction of Roll-On/Roll-Off (RO-RO) transport. Heavy and slow-moving vehicles,
hazardous goods carriers, steel carriers, large trailers and oversized loads
must be mandated to use RO-RO ships and RO-RO trains wherever possible.
This will sharply reduce accident
risk, cut driver fatigue from multi-day continuous travel, make interstate
movement of raw materials and finished goods faster and more reliable, reduce
fuel consumption and pollution, and increase the average speed of remaining
highway vehicles due to lower traffic density. Complete logistics hubs with
godowns and cold storage must be created. The target is that at least 30% of
current long-haul highway vehicles shift to RO-RO mode. Certain industrial
categories can be made mandatory users by default. This will also generate
substantial additional employment in coastal and inland locations.
b) Incentives + default RO-RO
for certain manufacturers and slow vehicles
Makes multi-modal transport the
normal and preferred choice.
c) Vehicle Miles Travelled
(VMT) tax + carbon credits + extra tax beyond 300 km
Government introduces Vehicle
Miles Travelled (VMT) and vehicle carbon credits. Fuel cost is increased based
on higher monthly mileage of personal vehicles. People intending to drive more
than the average monthly limit must buy carbon credits. Additional tax is
imposed on personal passenger vehicle usage beyond 300 km one way on highways.
This encourages people to use trains, buses or taxis instead of driving
themselves.
d) Mandatory Journey
Declaration App, Odometer Tracking and Toll Collection (Applicable to All
Vehicles)
Government shall create a mandatory App that every vehicle driver must use by
default — whether on highways or in cities. Before starting any journey the
driver must record starting odometer reading, starting point and planned ending
point. At the end of the day or journey the ending odometer reading and actual
ending point must also be entered.
The system, fully synced with
vehicle GPS and the driver’s phone GPS, continuously tracks the exact number of
kilometres done every day. This data is used for automatic low-fuel alerts,
automatic alerts for upcoming periodic maintenance, detection of roadside
unauthorised fuel use, and prevention of odometer tampering. Because starting
and ending points are declared in advance, toll can be collected digitally at
the beginning of the journey (linked to bank account) for free passage through
toll plazas, or automatically added at the next fuel top-up.
e) Restricting Personal
Vehicle Usage on Highways
To actively discourage personal
and passenger vehicles from making long journeys on highways, the same strict
8-hour duty limit is enforced on every passenger vehicle — whether driven by a
professional driver, the vehicle owner, or operated as a taxi. After 8 hours a
mandatory driver change is required.
This makes long intercity trips
(especially above 150 km) far less convenient in a personal car. People will
naturally shift to multi-mode transport or use taxis with proper driver-change
or connecting-taxi facilities. Demand for taxis, professional drivers,
passenger buses and trains will increase, creating large-scale employment. More
rest places and eateries will develop. Fuel consumption, pollution and accident
numbers will fall. Enforcement is supported by GPS tracking and monitoring of
parking at hotels, pilgrimage centres, restaurants and Highway Hubs.
8.
Animal-Related Accident Prevention
a) Mandatory animal census,
RFID tagging and visibility markers
A mandatory animal census shall
be conducted in every village. Every animal (cattle, buffalo, cow, goat, pig,
etc.) must be counted, registered, fitted with a unique RFID tag linked to
cattle/animal insurance, and must wear a radium self-glowing belt or light
reflector so that it is clearly visible from a long distance at night,
especially in villages adjacent to highways.
b) Joint responsibility of
village panchayat and local officials
The village panchayat, local
government officials and even nearby shopkeepers shall be made jointly
responsible for ensuring that no stray cattle remain standing, sleeping or
sitting on the roadside or in the middle of the highway.
c) Complete ban on highway
grazing and movement
Grazing or deliberate movement of
goats, pigs, cattle, cows or buffaloes on the highway by dairy owners or animal
raisers — whether during day or night — is completely banned. Heavy penalties
will be imposed for violations.
d) Citizen photo-reporting
with reward and automatic penalty
Continuous monitoring will be
done through AI CCTV cameras. Any passenger or driver can click a photograph of
free-moving or stray animals on the highway and upload it on the dedicated
Government Photo App. The person who reports will receive a reward, and the
animal owner will automatically receive a penalty.
e) Strong illuminated fencing
in prone stretches
In all identified cattle-prone,
stray-animal-prone or wild-animal-prone stretches, the government shall erect
strong, non-tamperable fencing along the highway. These fences must be
self-illuminated or fitted with radium illumination for night visibility, and
shall be continuously monitored by AI CCTV cameras from a distance.
f) Voice/message alerts and
thermal cameras
Drivers receive advance warning
when entering animal-prone zones. Thermal cameras detect animals even in
complete darkness and send real-time alerts to approaching vehicles.
9. Alcohol,
Tobacco, and Related Behavioural Controls
a) Complete Nationwide Ban on
Loose Alcohol Sale and Strict Control Measures
The government must impose a
complete nationwide ban on the loose sale of alcohol. All existing alcohol and
wine shops as well as cheap liquor shops across India shall be closed
permanently. Alcohol will be sold only in limited quantity inside a small number
of select exclusive bars and restaurants with mandatory pre-booking of table,
pre-order and pre-payment, sale only in limited quantity per person, and
compulsory breath-analyser check at both entry and exit. Without a clear
breath-analyser reading, entry is denied for that visit and also for future
visits to any bar in the country.
Local elected representatives and
government officials shall be held fully responsible for any manufacture or
sale of cheap liquor anywhere in the country, including areas near highways.
Manufacture or sale of cheap liquor will attract life imprisonment. No
exclusive bars shall be permitted in the surrounding areas of highways or near
Highway Hubs. No vehicle is allowed to stop on the highway for the purpose of
consuming alcohol. AI CCTV cameras at Highway Hubs and cabin dash cameras will
monitor and ensure no alcohol is consumed while driving.
b) Driver must declare “no
alcohol” on App + insurance becomes zero if alcohol is found
Very strong financial deterrent.
c) Nationwide Ban on Gutkha,
Tobacco, Cigarette, Beedi and Related Products
The government must enforce a
complete nationwide ban on the sale, manufacture and use of gutkha, tobacco,
cigarettes, beedis and all similar products, with special strict enforcement
near highways and for drivers.
Regular use causes oral cancer,
throat cancer, lung cancer, chronic lung infections, heart disease and weakened
immunity. Many gutkha brands contain silica dust or glass powder and narcotic
addictive substances that increase dependency. Secondary smoke harms family
members and fellow passengers.
While driving, the act of
lighting a cigarette or beedi requires taking one hand off the steering and
looking away. Smoking requires prolonged one-hand driving. Smoke inside the
cabin causes drowsiness. Gutkha chewing requires frequent spitting by opening
the window and turning the head — even a momentary diversion at high speed can
cause an accident. Spit falling on other vehicles’ windshields causes
distraction and often leads to arguments, chase fights and violence. A complete
ban removes all these health and safety risks.
d) Regulation of Sexual
Activity to Prevent Driver Fatigue
One rarely discussed but
important cause of night-time drowsiness is addressed directly. Many drivers
stop at unregulated roadside locations for sexual activity. After sexual
activity the body naturally experiences a strong wave of relaxation and sleepiness.
When this happens on a highway the driver often continues the journey in a
half-asleep state.
The same energy drain and
sleepiness also occur after watching pornography or masturbating inside the
vehicle cabin. Due to excess body heat in non-air-conditioned cabins some
drivers resort to masturbation or short unregulated sexual encounters in unhygienic
conditions. All such activities inside the cabin or on the roadside must be
completely stopped.
Roadside and highway-linked
prostitution is completely banned. Prostitution is legalised and strictly
regulated only inside authorised registered centres located far away from
highways, with compulsory health checks, pre-payment and proper hygiene standards.
Drivers must be thoroughly educated about the link between sexual activity and
fatigue. Any driver who avails prostitution services must take a mandatory rest
of at least 16 hours before being allowed to resume duty through the Government
App. Drivers are advised to restrict sexual activity to safe legitimate
relations at home or to use only the legalised centres, and to avoid practices
that cause prolonged energy drain.
10. Continuous
Road Condition Monitoring, Instant Repairs, and Stricter Highway Licensing
a) Daily monitoring of
potholes by AI vehicles, drones and CCTV
Most accidents on Indian roads
are caused or made worse by poor road conditions — water logging, deep
potholes, sudden surface damage, etc. These defects force vehicles to swerve,
cause excessive wear on tyres, brakes, suspension and engines far beyond normal
expectations, and frequently lead to tyre bursts, brake failures or loss of
control. Daily monitoring by AI-equipped vehicles, drones and highway CCTV
detects these problems early, before they become deadly.
b) Repair within one hour
Once a pothole or road defect is
detected or reported, it must be repaired within one hour. Leaving potholes
open for days or weeks is one of the biggest reasons for repeated accidents at
the same location. Rapid repair eliminates the hazard quickly, reduces vehicle
damage, and prevents thousands of accidents.
c) Mandatory driver reporting
of hazards (supported by dash-cam)
Drivers who pass through water
logging, fresh potholes, mud slides, rock slides, fallen trees, dead animals or
any other obstruction must report them immediately on the Government App.
Dash-cam footage automatically supports the report. If the camera has recorded
the hazard and the driver fails to report it, a penalty is imposed. This turns
every driver into an active part of the monitoring system.
d) Immediate clearing of
fallen trees and dead animals by local NDRF teams
NDRF and local disaster-response
teams must keep their equipment (including pothole-filling machinery) stationed
in the vicinity of stretches that are frequently prone to mud slides, rock
slides or heavy pothole formation. Fallen trees, dead animals, rocks or mud
must be cleared at once and traffic alerts issued simultaneously so that the
hazard does not remain for hours or days.
e) Systematic correction of
blind spots, bad curves and accident-prone stretches
The GPS system continuously
alerts approaching vehicles to slow down or take diversions when a hazard
exists. It also prevents drivers from taking dangerous risks such as entering
floodwaters, crossing broken bridges or driving on unsafe hill roads. In addition,
the government must permanently redesign and correct all identified blind
spots, poor road banking, sharp curves and accident-prone stretches so that the
road itself no longer invites accidents.
f) 24/7 Highway Authority
patrolling with dash cameras and AI analysis
The Highway Authority shall
conduct continuous 24/7 standard patrolling on all highways. Every patrol
vehicle must be fitted with complete dash cameras. The footage from these dash
cameras will be analysed in real time by a central AI data centre to automatically
detect potholes, road damage, water logging, obstacles, accidents and any other
hazards.
This system will ensure
continuous official monitoring, rapid detection of problems, and faster
response, working in coordination with the youth monitors and the overall
digital safety network.
g) Stricter licensing: 10,000
km experience + 30,000 km apprenticeship + full simulation tests
At present many licences are
issued with insufficient real-world training. Henceforth:
- For a city driving licence a person must complete
mandatory training in an authorised driving school — first on simulators
and then six months / 10,000 km of actual on-road training. The entire
simulation and road training must be recorded on video and audio. The
licence will be issued only by the training school after successful
completion (not directly by government offices).
- For a full highway driving licence an additional
30,000 km of supervised/assisted training is compulsory. This training
must be spread over one year and cover all terrains and all weather
conditions (rain, fog, hill, valley, slippery surfaces, extreme heat and
cold) at different locations so that the trainee becomes thoroughly
familiar with every kind of driving situation.
Only after completing this
rigorous, recorded training will a driver be allowed on high-speed highways.
This ensures that every highway driver has real experience of all conditions
and dramatically reduces accidents caused by inexperience or panic in difficult
situations.
11. Healthy
Food Timing, Dietary Discipline During Travel, and Cabin Behaviour Controls
a) Finish dinner by 7 pm as
national habit (including during journeys)
Late heavy meals significantly
slow down digestion and cause drowsiness and reduced reaction time during night
driving. As a national health-care measure the government shall promote
finishing dinner by 7 pm everywhere, including on highways. On highways the
acceptable dinner window shall be strictly between 6 pm and 9 pm so that
digestion remains smooth and drivers stay alert.
b) All restaurants and food
courts close by 9 pm; only fruits, juices, tea, coffee and nuts after 9 pm at
hubs
A nationwide rule will require
every restaurant and food court across India (including those on highways) to
close by 9 pm. After 9 pm only fresh fruits, fruit juices, tea, coffee and nuts
may be sold at Highway Hubs. This prevents late-night heavy eating that induces
sleepiness and keeps the digestive system light during night travel.
c) Complete ban on non-veg
food in buses, trains, flights and Highway Hubs
Non-vegetarian food takes longer
to digest, increases bloating, gas and heaviness, and raises the chance of
drowsiness during already tiring journeys. Therefore non-veg food (meat, fish,
etc.) is completely banned in buses, trains, flights and at Highway Hubs. At
the most, only properly cooked eggs may be allowed. Deep-fried items of any
kind and even thawed non-veg fries are banned nationwide; only properly cooked
non-veg is permitted where allowed.
d) Only light vegetarian
freshly cooked food during travel; non-veg only during proper rest periods
During travel, especially for
drivers, only light, freshly cooked vegetarian food and plant-based proteins
shall be served. This keeps the body light, reduces inflammation and bloating,
and maintains high alertness. Drivers may consume properly cooked non-veg (no
deep fries) only during their off-duty rest periods at Highway Hubs, preferably
in the morning. Drivers will also be trained to carry simple digestive aids
such as jeera (cumin) to prevent gas and discomfort. Bloating and indigestion
raise cortisol (stress hormone) and reduce alertness; therefore every driver
must keep the gut system comfortable — no gas, no indigestion — for maximum
safety.
e) No eating or careless
drinking inside the moving cabin; only easy-sip straw bottles for water
Eating or drinking in a way that requires looking away or using both hands
diverts attention from the road. Drivers may drink water only from small
easy-sip straw bottles that can be used without taking eyes off the road or
opening a bottle. This minimises attention diversion at high speed.
f) No cold drinks/colas in
cabin + dash-cam monitoring of eating/drinking/watching videos
Cold drinks and colas cause further digestive discomfort and energy crashes.
Cabin dash cameras will continuously monitor and record any eating, improper
drinking or watching of videos inside the cabin while driving. All such
activities are prohibited and attract penalties.
g) Ban on downloading videos
or entertainment content while moving on highways
Watching videos or entertainment
content while the vehicle is moving is a major cause of visual distraction and
accidents. Downloading or playing such content on highways is completely banned
so that the driver’s full attention remains on the road.
12. Mandatory
Helmet Use for All Two-Wheelers and Other Vulnerable Road Users
a) Standard-design helmet with
unique ID linked to fuel issue
It is extremely unfortunate that
most people still do not wear helmets on two-wheelers even though head injuries
are the leading cause of death and lifelong disability in two-wheeler
accidents. Many avoid helmets citing head or neck pain, sweating, or fear of
hair loss — reasons that are trivial when compared with a life completely
wasted due to a serious head injury.
To end this negligence, every
two-wheeler rider (petrol, CNG or electric) must wear a standard-design helmet
that carries a unique ID. Fuel will be issued only after the helmet’s unique ID
is verified and linked to the vehicle and the rider. No helmet verification
means no fuel. This single step forces 100% compliance. In addition, every
helmet must have radium stickers so that the rider remains visible at night
even if the vehicle lights fail.
b) All pillion riders must
also wear helmets
The person sitting at the back is
equally vulnerable, and in many accidents the pillion rider suffers the more
serious head injury. Making helmet compulsory for the pillion rider protects
the second most vulnerable person on the vehicle and ensures both lives are
safeguarded.
c) AI CCTV automatic detection
+ bank-linked automatic fine
Manual checking of helmets is
irregular and easy to escape. AI-enabled CCTV cameras at traffic signals and on
roads will automatically detect whether both the rider and the pillion are
wearing helmets. The moment a violation is recorded, an automatic fine is
generated and recovered directly from the linked bank account through the RTA
system. Technology itself becomes the strict enforcer and removes dependence on
human checking.
d) Compulsory helmets for
bicycle, horse and bullock-cart riders
Serious head injuries also occur
when cyclists, horse riders or bullock-cart riders fall. Extending the helmet
rule to these non-motorised users (with light-weight standard safety helmets)
reduces preventable head injuries across all vulnerable road users. Radium
stickers on these helmets further improve night visibility.
e) Strict ban on two-wheelers
and similar vehicles on highways
Two-wheelers, autos, bicycles and
bullock carts are particularly unsafe on high-speed highways. Through mandatory
GPS tracking, the government shall strictly ban these categories of vehicles
from highways. Any violation will attract heavy fines and impounding of the
vehicle. Limited exceptions may be granted only for genuine cross-country or
natural-peace mission journeys with prior permission. This restriction alone
will save a large number of lives that are currently lost when slow or unstable
vehicles mix with high-speed highway traffic.
13. Mandatory
Seat-Belt Compliance and Complete Ban on Excess Load - Passengers
a) Seat-belt sensors linked to
engine ignition + real-time GPS alert
Most people, even on high-speed
highways, still neglect to wear seat belts. This simple negligence is one of
the biggest root causes of deaths and serious injuries in accidents. When a
vehicle crashes, an unbelted occupant is thrown forward with massive force and
suffers far heavier injuries.
To end this, every seat is fitted
with sensors linked to the engine ignition. If any driver or passenger is not
wearing the seat belt, the vehicle will either not start or will keep giving a
continuous loud cabin alarm and simultaneously send a real-time alert to the
central GPS system. This technological compulsion makes wearing the seat belt
100% mandatory and removes the possibility of ignoring it.
b) Complete ban on even one
extra or hanging passenger
Overloading and hanging
passengers on autos, buses, school vans, worker transport vehicles, commercial
vehicle cabins, passenger buses and taxis is extremely common in both cities
and on highways. In an accident these extra passengers have no protection and
become the first victims; they also disturb the balance and control of the
vehicle.
A complete ban on carrying even
one passenger beyond the registered seating capacity (no hanging on footboards
or anywhere else) stops this dangerous overcrowding and ensures every person
travelling has a proper seat and a proper seat belt.
c) Designated vehicle designs
for every mode of transport + strict ban on overloading and cross-use
Government shall mandate specific, standardised vehicle designs for each
category of goods transport. Separate designated designs will be created for
agricultural produce (paddy, wheat, rice, etc.), cattle and livestock
transport, iron ore, manganese ore and mineral transport, coal, steel
transport, cement transport, concrete transport, heavy machinery transport,
automobile transport, industrial effluents and other major categories.
Each designated design will have
the correct body structure, load capacity, centre of gravity, loading/unloading
arrangement and safety features suitable for that particular cargo. This
minimises the risk of toppling, load shift, brake failure and accidents caused
by improper or overloaded vehicles. Using a non-designated vehicle for a
different type of cargo, or loading any goods vehicle beyond its approved
capacity, will attract strict punishment and heavy penalties. These
standardised designs also make loading and unloading at godowns faster, safer
and easier, reduce damage to the goods themselves, and protect the health and
safety of workers who load and unload the vehicles.
d) Mandatory pre-journey
disclosure of all passenger details (Aadhaar, blood group, medical records,
family contacts) + mobile GPS linked
Before starting any highway
journey the driver must enter the details of every passenger on the Government
App — Aadhaar-based biometrics, blood group, digital medical records, current
health conditions, medicines being used, and immediate family contact numbers.
The mobile GPS of passengers is also linked to the vehicle GPS.
This serves two important
purposes: in case of an accident the emergency team immediately knows the
medical background and can give correct treatment; and it makes overloading
impossible because the number of passengers is digitally recorded and verified.
e) Heavy automatic fines via
AI/dash cameras
Any violation of seat-belt use or
excess passenger rules detected by AI cameras or dash cameras attracts heavy
automatic fines that are recovered directly from the linked bank account. The
financial penalty is kept high enough to act as a strong and immediate
deterrent.
f) Airbags as standard
equipment
In future every vehicle permitted
on highways must come with airbags as standard equipment even in base versions.
Wherever possible, existing highway passenger vehicles and heavy vehicles
should be retrofitted with airbags. Seat belts hold the body in place and
airbags further cushion the impact, together greatly reducing the severity of
injuries.
g) Standard design for highway
passenger vehicles
The government shall also enforce
standard robust safety designs for all passenger vehicles that run on highways.
Many odd or lightweight designs that may be acceptable for slow city driving
are not safe for high-speed highway use. Only vehicles that meet proper highway
safety design standards will be allowed.
14. Mandatory
First-Aid, Emergency Medical Preparedness and Highway Trauma Care Network
a) Complete first-aid kit in
every vehicle
Due to lack of even basic first
aid, many accident victims lose their lives, become permanently handicapped, or
suffer lifelong disability in the critical minutes after a crash. A standard,
complete first-aid kit in every vehicle (personal, commercial, passenger or
goods) ensures that immediate help — stopping bleeding, immobilising fractures,
keeping the airway clear — is available right at the accident spot before any
professional help arrives.
b) Compulsory CPR and trauma
training for drivers every 3–6 months on simulators
Most people standing near an
accident, or even the uninjured passengers, do not know what to do when someone
has stopped breathing, is losing blood, is in shock, or has a head injury. Many
also hesitate to help because of fear. Therefore, CPR and basic trauma care
training is made compulsory for obtaining a driving licence, with compulsory
refresher training on simulators every three or six months. This turns every
driver into a trained first responder who can act correctly in the golden
minutes and saves lives that are otherwise lost due to ignorance or fear.
c) Emergency oxygen kits in
every highway vehicle
In many accidents passengers
suffer breathing difficulty due to chest injury, shock or smoke. An emergency
oxygen kit (minimum 30 minutes for passenger vehicles and one-hour cylinders
for heavy vehicles) keeps the victim oxygenated until the ambulance arrives,
greatly improving the chance of survival.
d) Specialised trauma training
for hospitals and ambulance staff near highways
Ordinary medical staff are often
not fully trained for the specific pattern of injuries seen in high-speed road
accidents (massive blood loss, multiple fractures, brain injuries, etc.).
Specialised trauma training for all hospitals located near highways and for all
ambulance staff ensures that the moment the victim reaches medical care, the
correct life-saving protocol is followed.
e) Highway ambulances every 15
km (reach within 10 minutes)
The golden hour is actually only
a few golden minutes. Stationing fully equipped and trained ambulances every 15
km (at Highway Hubs or in accident-prone stretches) ensures that professional
help reaches the spot within 10 minutes, dramatically cutting response time and
saving lives that are now lost due to delay.
f) Trauma Care Centres every
50 km + Air Ambulances every 100 km
Dedicated Highway Emergency
Trauma Care Centres with specialist doctors every 50 km allow serious cases to
be treated on the spot. Air ambulances every 100 km provide the fastest
possible evacuation for critically injured persons to higher medical facilities,
reducing deaths caused by long road journeys after severe accidents.
g) Real-time video guidance
from National Emergency Centre
Even trained people can freeze or
forget steps under stress. The National Emergency Highway Accident Relief
Centre provides live video guidance to the drivers, co-passengers or nearby
helpers at the accident spot, telling them exactly what to do step-by-step
until the ambulance arrives. This online support further reduces loss of life
in the golden minutes.
h) Additional supporting
enforcement measures
The GPS system automatically
alerts the vehicles coming behind to stop at the accident site and provide help
until the ambulance reaches. Helping is made compulsory; those who ignore the
alert without valid reason are penalised, while those who stop and assist are
rewarded. Mandatory passenger data (including profession) allows the system to
instantly identify any doctors, nurses or paramedics travelling in nearby
personal vehicles or buses and alert them to come and give first aid even
before the ambulance arrives.
15. Mandatory
Proper Resting Place and Complete Sleep Cycle for All Drivers
a) Rest only at registered
places (home / PG / Highway Hub) after 8 hours
It is criminal on the part of
vehicle owners — and equally on the part of the system that allows it — to
force drivers to sleep inside the vehicle, even for a few hours, during highway
or outstation journeys. Many owners of high-end cars worth crores of rupees
spend freely on fuel but refuse to provide their drivers with a proper room,
toilet or bathing facility. Sleeping in a sitting or cramped position inside a
car or truck cabin is not real rest; it is distorted, incomplete sleep that
leaves the driver exhausted. Therefore, after completing 8 hours of duty, every
driver must rest only at a registered place — his own home, a registered
paying-guest accommodation, a Highway Hub rest house, or a registered hotel facility.
This rest must be properly recorded. Only then can the driver get
uninterrupted, good-quality sleep.
b) Owner-cum-drivers must use
partner or freelance drivers after 8 hours
Many vehicle owners who drive
their own trucks or cars continue driving alone for 12–16 hours or more. This
is extremely dangerous. After 8 hours they must either hand over the steering
to a partner driver travelling with them or call a freelance rested driver from
the nearest hub. Continuous solo driving by the owner is completely prohibited.
This rule stops the common practice of owner-drivers pushing themselves beyond
safe limits.
c) Complete ban on sleeping
inside cabin or under the vehicle
Sleeping inside the cabin or
under the vehicle is a widespread but highly dangerous practice. The sleep is
of very poor quality, the driver remains half-alert to protect the vehicle, and
there is always the risk of the vehicle moving accidentally or of the driver
being run over. This practice is now completely banned for all categories of
vehicles — trucks, buses, cars and any other passenger or goods vehicle.
Drivers must leave the vehicle and sleep in a proper registered resting place.
d) Compulsory sleep-monitoring
wearable every day linked to licence
Every driver must wear a
sleep-monitoring device every day. The device records the actual hours and
quality of sleep and is linked to the driving licence and insurance. If a
driver has not obtained 8–10 hours of proper sleep, the system can block him
from starting duty. This forces real rest and also prevents drivers from doing
side jobs or overtime work during their rest period, especially at night.
e) Full 24-hour cycle required
before next driving duty
Simply sleeping for 8 hours is
not enough if the driver returns to the steering immediately afterwards. The
body needs a full 24-hour cycle to recover completely. Therefore, after
finishing duty and taking proper sleep, a driver cannot take the steering again
until a full 24-hour period has passed (especially for highway and
long-distance passenger vehicles). This rule preserves the driver’s energy,
reduces accumulated stress, and ensures that alertness is fully restored before
the next duty begins.
16. Stringent
Punishments for Sub-Standard Parts & Multi-Layer Vehicle Fitness System
a) Life imprisonment for
anyone involved in sub-standard spare parts or lubricants
In India, more than 60% of the
spare parts used in vehicle repairs are duplicate or sub-standard and are sold
at cheaper rates. These fake parts wear out very fast, fail suddenly, and are a
major cause of brake failure, tyre bursts, steering failure and engine seizure
— leading directly to serious accidents. Life imprisonment for every person in
the chain (manufacturers, dealers, distributors, suppliers and mechanics who
use them) creates the strongest possible fear and completely discourages this
dangerous trade.
b) Complete ban on loose sale
of oils and spare parts in retail shops
At present, engine oils, brake
oils and lubricants are sold loosely to any person or unauthorised mechanic
shop. A large quantity of these oils is actually recycled used oil that is
simply re-packed in containers resembling original brands. Such adulterated
oils damage engines and brakes and also cause heavy metal pollution. When
discarded carelessly on streets and drains, these oils mix with rain water,
flow into water bodies, contaminate soil, and enter the food chain through
leafy vegetables grown with this water — leading to cancers, dermatitis,
neurological problems and other diseases. Banning loose sale stops both the
mechanical danger and the environmental health hazard.
c) All service stations
registered with real-time online inventory of genuine OEM parts only
Only service stations that are
authorised and trained by the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) will be
allowed to operate. These stations must maintain a complete online real-time
inventory of every spare part and lubricant. Parts can be purchased only
directly from the authorised manufacturer or their official distributors, and
every transaction is recorded with the government. When a vehicle comes for
periodic maintenance, breakdown repair or any service, the exact spare parts
and quantity of oil used are automatically uploaded to the vehicle registration
authority. Used tyres and old spare parts must also be accounted for and handed
over for safe government-authorised recycling. This system makes it almost
impossible for duplicate or sub-standard parts to enter the service chain.
d) Lifelong imprisonment for
corrupt RTO officials who wrongly issue licences or fitness certificates
Even if good parts are made available, corrupt officials who issue driving
licences without proper testing or who pass unfit vehicles in fitness tests put
dangerous drivers and dangerous vehicles on the road. Lifelong imprisonment for
such officials ends this corruption and ensures that only genuinely competent
drivers and properly fit vehicles receive official clearance.
e) Three-layer fitness system
- Primary test by the authorised service centre during
mandatory periodic maintenance.
- Secondary fitness test by RTO officials, fully
recorded on camera, so that no vehicle can be passed fraudulently.
- Daily photographic pre-start checklist uploaded by
the driver himself on the Government App (tyre pressure, engine oil, brake
fluid, lights, mirrors, etc.).
This three-layer system ensures
that every vehicle plying on highways is nearly 100% fit at all times. Any
weakness is caught either during scheduled service, during the official RTO
check, or every single morning before the vehicle starts.
17. National
Parking App and Strict Authorised Parking System
a) Mandatory National Parking
App with unique ID for every parking place
At present there is no standard
parking facility or accountability. People park anywhere, charge arbitrarily,
and even treat public road space as their private property by encroaching on
roads. Residential areas, commercial zones and even highway stretches near
villages and towns are blocked by vehicles. The National Parking App gives
every authorised parking place (hotel, office, shop, RWA, market, public lot,
etc.) a unique ID and creates a complete digital record of every vehicle that
enters or exits. This ends chaos and brings full accountability.
b) Entry only after scanning
number plate + licence QR + biometric + registration
Before a vehicle is allowed
inside any parking place, the system scans the number plate, driver’s licence
QR code, driver’s biometric and vehicle registration. This confirms that the
vehicle is genuine, the number plate is not tampered, and the person driving is
the authorised driver. Unauthorised drivers or vehicles with fake number plates
cannot enter.
c) Free parking only for
pre-registered vehicles; others must pay and use authorised lots
Only vehicles that are
permanently registered for that specific parking area (for example, RWA
residents or office staff) get free parking. All other vehicles must pay and
use authorised lots. This controls the total number of vehicles in any area and
stops unlimited free parking that leads to overcrowding.
d) Complete ban on street,
by-lane and roadside parking (automatic fine + impounding)
Parking on streets, by-lanes, in
front of houses, shops or on highway roadsides is completely banned. Any
vehicle parked in unauthorised places is automatically fined through AI cameras
and can be impounded. This immediately frees roads, restores free flow of
traffic, reduces congestion, lowers pollution and increases average travel
speed. On highways it also removes the danger of vehicles parked suddenly on
the roadside.
e) Limited personal vehicle
parking in offices; others must use multi-mode transport
Offices are allowed only a
limited number of pre-registered personal vehicles. All other employees must
use buses, metro, shared transport or other multi-mode options. This forces a
major shift away from private cars for daily commuting and significantly
reduces the number of vehicles on city roads.
f) Hotels/restaurants limited
by their actual parking capacity or must use valet + multi-level parking
Every hotel, restaurant or
commercial establishment must possess adequate parking space of its own or
arrange 100% valet parking linked to multi-level parking facilities within a
short radius. If they exceed their authorised capacity, their licence can be
restricted or cancelled. This prevents overflow parking that currently blocks
surrounding roads.
g) Residential rule: No
vehicle without proper home or leased multi-level parking within 5 km
A person can buy or keep a
vehicle only if he has proper parking space at home or has leased a permanent
slot in a multi-level parking facility within 5 km. Otherwise the vehicle can
be impounded. Residents can use electric shuttle services or valet drivers for
pick-up and drop. This stops the common practice of owning cars without any
parking space and then occupying public roads.
h) Integration with National
Vehicle Registry and CCTNS
The parking data is fully
integrated with the National Vehicle Registry and the Crime and Criminal
Tracking Network (CCTNS). Because every entry and exit is recorded with
biometric and vehicle details in real time, vehicle theft, kidnapping and
escape after crime become extremely difficult. Most criminals prefer private
vehicles or taxis to flee because trains, flights and buses are already
monitored. With this parking system they can be traced within minutes.
Mandatory passenger data (biometric or face photo) for highway journeys further
helps in quick identification of criminals.
i) Feasibility through unique
IDs, real-time database, AI cameras and private investment in multi-level
parking
The entire system runs on unique
IDs, a real-time national database and AI cameras, so it is transparent and
needs very little human intervention. Private investment is invited to build
multi-level parking structures, which simultaneously creates infrastructure and
large-scale employment. In addition, the parking system works together with
CPFNA and the journey-start App so that any attempt to tamper with number
plates or change drivers mid-way is caught at the next parking or fuel stop.
18. Additional
Supporting Measures
a) Only standardised horns
At present many vehicles use
multi-tone, air horns or extremely loud pressure horns that create sudden
panic, anger and aggressive reactions among other drivers. Standardised horns
with a fixed, moderate sound level reduce noise pollution and prevent the chain
of aggressive driving that often starts with unnecessary or threatening
honking. When every vehicle has the same moderate horn, drivers become less
irritated and more disciplined, lowering the chance of road-rage incidents and
sudden dangerous manoeuvres.
b) Criminal offence to block
highways with logs, stones etc. + collective village penalty
Blocking a highway with logs,
stones, vehicles or any other obstruction forces oncoming traffic to brake
suddenly or take dangerous diversions, frequently causing major accidents.
Making such acts a criminal offence, combined with a collective penalty on the
entire village or group responsible, creates strong social pressure against
these protests. Quick clearing by NDRF or local authorities becomes possible,
and the fear of collective punishment discourages people from endangering
thousands of lives for local demands.
c) Ban on burning wood or
creating smoke near highways
Smoke from burning wood, garbage
or agricultural waste near highways severely reduces visibility, especially at
night or in early morning. Drivers suddenly enter a smoke screen, lose sight of
the road, and often collide with other vehicles or roadside objects. A complete
ban on any activity that creates smoke near highways keeps the air clear,
maintains proper visibility, and prevents smoke-related accidents.
d) Mandatory yoga and
breathing exercises logged on App
Long hours of driving create
mental stress, anxiety and loss of concentration. Simple daily yoga and
breathing exercises (pranayama) calm the nervous system, improve oxygen flow to
the brain, reduce stress hormones and sharpen focus. When these exercises are
made mandatory and logged on the Government App, drivers develop better mental
stability and remain more alert during long journeys, directly lowering
fatigue-related and stress-related mistakes.
e) Periodic blood tests +
natural food at Highway Hubs
Professional drivers often suffer
from high blood pressure, diabetes, anaemia or other hidden health problems
that reduce alertness. Compulsory blood tests every three months detect these
issues early. At the same time, Highway Hubs must serve only freshly cooked,
low-oil, low-carbohydrate natural food (with items like jaggery, herbal tea,
fruits, etc.) instead of deep-fried junk food. Heavy junk food causes
heaviness, acidity and sleepiness, while light natural food keeps the body
energetic and the mind clear — both essential for safe driving.
f) Strict speed governors +
GPS speed monitoring linked to fuel and licence
Overspeeding remains one of the
biggest causes of fatal accidents. Fitting every vehicle with a speed governor
that physically limits maximum speed, and linking real-time GPS speed data to
the fuel system and driving licence, makes overspeeding impossible to hide. The
moment a vehicle exceeds the limit, the system can reduce fuel supply or record
a penalty against the licence. This automatic enforcement removes the
possibility of escaping punishment and forces every driver to maintain safe
speeds at all times.
g) Complete ban on religious
processions and individual walking on highways
Highways are meant for the safe
and efficient movement of vehicles, not for religious activities. The
government must impose a strict nationwide ban on all religious processions of
every religion on highways, including so-called Kanwar Yatras and any other
similar events. No individuals shall be allowed to walk on highways for
religious or any other purpose.
Such processions and walking
block or severely narrow the carriageway, force millions of highway vehicles to
slow down or stop, create sudden congestion, and greatly increase the risk of
accidents. They also put the participants themselves in danger from high-speed
traffic. This has nothing to do with genuine peace or spirituality; it only
causes large-scale public nuisance and endangers lives.
A complete and strictly enforced
ban will keep highways free, safe and flowing for their intended purpose.
h) Complete ban on blocking of
highways by political parties, NGOs or any people as a form of protest
Highways must be 100% exempted
from any kind of protest, demonstration or blockade by political parties, NGOs,
organisations or individuals. Blocking a highway for any protest is completely
prohibited.
Such blockades cause massive
traffic jams, force vehicles to remain stranded for hours, lead to loss of
millions of man-hours of productive time, delay the movement of essential and
perishable goods (especially those requiring refrigeration), result in food
rotting and huge economic losses, and create serious safety risks for all road
users.
A strict and absolute ban on any
form of highway blocking for protests will keep the roads free for their
intended purpose, protect productivity, prevent wastage of perishable goods,
and save the nation from recurring large-scale economic and human losses.
i) Free leased land along
highways for unemployed youth for millet and palm jaggery cultivation
Government shall provide free
leased land along both sides of all state and national highways to unemployed
youth for cultivation of millets (which are rainfed and require very little
water or only one spell of water, making them ideal for rain-shadow areas) and
for growing palm for jaggery.
This will ensure that trained
youth are present across the entire length and breadth of the highways. These
youth will be specially trained in emergency response, first aid, reporting of
accidents, water logging, road damage and other highway-related issues. They
will operate under standard patrolling limits and their daily monitoring data
will be integrated with the central system. This creates employment, improves
continuous ground-level surveillance, and provides immediate local help
whenever needed on the highways.
Conclusion
The measures presented in this
document form a complete and tightly interlinked safety system. Each group of
measures attacks one major root cause of accidents so that the conditions which
produce crashes are removed before they can occur.
Driver fatigue — the single
largest killer on Indian highways — is eliminated through strict eight-hour
duty limits, compulsory fifteen-minute breaks every two hours, continuous
sleep-monitoring wearables linked to the driving licence, mandatory rest only
in registered places (home, paying guest, Highway Hub or hotel), complete
prohibition on sleeping inside or under vehicles, and an organised system of
freelance rested drivers who take over after eight hours. Anti-drowsiness
devices that constantly watch the driver’s eyes, dash cameras, live biometric
verification and real-time GPS monitoring add a technological layer that
detects even a few seconds of microsleep and creates permanent evidence.
Mechanical failures are stopped
at multiple levels. Fuel is released only when the vehicle has completed
mandatory periodic maintenance. Only genuine OEM spare parts and lubricants are
permitted through fully registered service stations that maintain real-time
online inventory. Drivers must upload a detailed photographic pre-start
checklist every day covering tyre pressure, engine oil, brake fluid, lights,
mirrors, clutch and other critical items. A three-layer fitness system (service
centre test + camera-recorded RTO test + daily driver check) is backed by life
imprisonment for anyone who manufactures, sells or uses sub-standard parts and
for officials who issue false certificates.
Sudden obstacles and delayed
medical help are removed by the ban on mid-road stopping, compulsory
high-visibility emergency lights, professional towing only, first-aid kits and
oxygen cylinders in every vehicle, regular CPR and trauma training for all drivers,
ambulances stationed every 25 km, specialist trauma centres every 50 km, air
ambulances every 100 km, and live video guidance from the National Emergency
Centre so that correct first aid begins in the golden minutes.
Visual strain and physical
exhaustion are reduced by replacing blue LED highway lights with sodium vapour
or metal halide lamps, enforcing only standard vehicle lighting, mandatory
air-conditioned cabins held between 24–28°C, compulsory day-and-night anti-glare
glasses, ergonomic seats and water-flow sections that cool tyres in summer. The
total number of vehicles on highways is brought down through compulsory RO-RO
ships and trains for heavy and slow-moving traffic, vehicle-miles-travelled
taxes, carbon credits, extra levies on long-distance personal cars, and a
National Parking App that completely bans street parking and allows vehicle
ownership only when proper parking space exists — forcing a large-scale shift
to multi-modal transport.
Livestock collisions are
minimised by mandatory RFID collars with radium belts, strict owner and
panchayat accountability, advance voice alerts and thermal cameras.
Overcrowding and lack of personal protection end with seat-belt sensors linked
to engine ignition, total prohibition of even one extra or hanging passenger,
mandatory pre-journey disclosure of passenger medical details, and compulsory
standard helmets with unique identification for every two-wheeler rider,
pillion, cyclist and non-motorised user.
Behavioural risks receive equally
clear and firm treatment. Loose sale of alcohol is completely banned; alcohol
is available only in limited, biometric-controlled establishments located far
from highways, and insurance becomes void if alcohol is detected after an
accident. Early light dinner by 7 pm, restriction on heavy non-vegetarian food
during travel, and strict cabin rules against eating, drinking or watching
videos while driving keep the body light and the mind alert.
One rarely discussed but
important cause of night-time drowsiness is also addressed directly. Many
drivers stop at unregulated roadside locations for sexual activity. After
sexual activity the body naturally experiences a strong wave of relaxation and
sleepiness — a physiological fact that most people do not connect with road
accidents. When this happens on a highway, the driver often continues the
journey in a half-asleep state and becomes a high risk to everyone. To remove
this danger, roadside and highway-linked prostitution is completely banned.
Prostitution is legalised and strictly regulated only inside authorised,
registered centres located far away from highways, with compulsory health
checks and pre-payment. This ensures that drivers cannot access such services
while on duty and therefore do not begin the next stretch of driving in a
physiologically drowsy condition.
Road defects themselves cease to
be silent killers through daily AI, drone and CCTV monitoring, the one-hour
repair mandate, compulsory driver reporting backed by dash-cam evidence,
immediate clearing of fallen trees and dead animals, and permanent engineering
correction of blind spots, poor banking and accident-prone stretches. Only
drivers who have completed long verified experience, extensive apprenticeship
and rigorous simulation testing in fog, rain, mud, hills and hairpin bends are
allowed on high-speed highways.
These eighteen interlinked
measures do not wait for accidents to happen and then react. They
systematically dismantle the human, mechanical, infrastructural and behavioural
conditions that produce accidents. When implemented with full political will
and automatic digital enforcement through the Central Petroleum Fuels Network
Authority, the National Vehicle Registry and dedicated highway applications,
India can reverse the rising death toll, protect millions of families from
irreversible tragedy, and finally give its citizens the fundamental right to
travel safely on their own roads.
When implemented with full
political will and digital enforcement, India can save tens of thousands of
lives every year, protect families from lifelong suffering, and stop the
massive economic loss caused by road accidents.
