Designed speed regulation can reduce the high speed moving death on Indian roads.

When moving on a road our individual attempts to keep ourselves protected are only 50%, because the remaining 50% is in the hands of all others who seem to whistle past us or come and collide with us amongst all possibilities. Indian roads oflate have been  flooded by speeding death moving fashionably in the attire of  good looking cars. When people do not control themselves then it is time to formulate and implement strict regulations which should be designed in such a manner that they are interlocked with each other and hence would not be easy to be done away with. I propose that all new vehicles (especially cars) need to be designed to prevent them from being driven at speed more than 70 kmph on Indian roads & if consistently driven at more than 70 kmph for 10 minutes should result in jamming the engine to bring it to a gradual halt within the next 100 metres. This is certainly NOT rocket science for Automobile Engineers. Yes, it might sound absurd when the car is cutting the air on a six lane highway but then why not help in saving the precious fuel along with the lives. Believe me if we do all things in time then we have sufficient time to avoid worrying about saving time at least on roads.

yours is an invaluable effort at driving home an important point.it is relevant more to the state of AP wherein do we find more number of road deaths.the outer ring road of hyderabad has become synonymous with accidents.it is already late, for so many precious lives have been lost.why can't we do something instantly to make our roads safe?

Thanks for your appreciation Kamaraju. Infact the idea is applicable to entire India as cannot do much to improve the conditions of the road considering that the roads generally pass through villages and we just cannot prevent them being used by villagers as their "part of home area'. Besides we can't prevent pet animals moving on the road which are the root causes of accidents on the (unprotected)highways in majority of the cases. So let us do the best what we can do as of now and this should include focibly curbing the vehicle speed by design. I am puting forth one more idea in this context and that is to make a regulation of "FIXING" a particular type of horn for a particular type of vehicle. Fancy horns can also come high on the root causes list for accidents. Some one should bring it up in the Indian Parliament.
