The road transport ministry is working on a plan to build dedicated lanes for two-wheelers on the state highways and urban roads and pedestrian foot over bridges (FOBs) or underpasses along major urban arterial roads. Non-segregation of traffic is the main cause of high number of crashes in India. As per government statistics, nearly 44 percent of the road crashes and fatalities in India involve two-wheelers. Similarly, around 17 percent of road crashes and 19 percent fatalities involve pedestrians. Pedestrians, cyclists and two-wheeler riders are categorised as vulnerable road users (VRUs) and over half of the people killed on road fall under this category. The road transport ministry circulated a consultation paper titled 鈥楽AFE鈥� to reduce road crashes and deaths.
