IRF India Chapter has embarked upon an on-ground Road Safety validation programme covering 7 worst affected highway stretches of 100-150 kms each in the 7 States with highest road accidents, namely, Karnataka, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh.

The objective of the exercise is to transform these highway stretches, in association with the State Governments and Corporate India, into forgiving roads with almost zero fatalities and serious injuries. The transformation is intended through a series of corrective road safety management measures addressing the 5Es of road safety namely, Engineering of Roads, Engineering of Vehicles & Policy Intervention, Education, Enforcement and Emergency Care.
