India's roads are expanding—but are our road safety laws keeping pace? In Episode 3 of #RoadSensePodcast: Brake the Norm, Consumer VOICE CEO Mr. Ashim Sanyal discusses the urgent legal and policy reforms needed to protect pedestrians, cyclists, children, and every road user. As Parliament convenes, what road safety issues deserve immediate attention? 🎥 Watch now: youtube.com/watch?v=ErWkdt… #BrakeTheNorm #RoadSafety #PolicyReform #SafeRoads #VisionZero #India

Overloading on two-wheelers isn't just an individual choice—it's a systemic road safety challenge. For many families, it reflects a lack of safe, affordable, and accessible transport options. But the risks remain the same: reduced stability, longer braking distances, and a much higher chance of serious injury or death in a crash. We need stronger enforcement of passenger limits, safer public transport connectivity, improved last-mile mobility, and sustained public awareness campaigns to prevent overloading on two-wheelers. Road safety requires solutions that protect every life on the road. #RoadSafety #PolicyForSafety #SafeMobility #TwoWheelerSafety #NoOverloading #SaferRoads

@RoadSafetyNetwk @DeccanHerald @aiims_newdelhi @MORTHIndia @MORTHRoadSafety @TCILGroup @IRSC_Solve Every child deserves a safe journey. Strengthening child road safety through evidence-based policies, safer infrastructure, and wider adoption of Child Restraint Systems is essential to prevent avoidable tragedies. Together, let's make #NoChildLeftUnsafe a reality.

Never drink and drive. #ResponsibleDrinking #DrinkResponsibly #NeverDrinkAndDrive #RoadSafety #RoadSafetyAwareness #SafeChoices #ThinkBeforeYouDrink

Every journey with your child should begin with one simple decision: keeping them safely secured in a Child Restraint System (CRS). Children are not protected by adult seat belts alone. A properly installed, age-appropriate CRS is designed to reduce the risk of serious injury during sudden braking or a crash by providing the right support for a child's body. Whether it's a quick drive to school or a long family road trip, every ride deserves the same level of protection. Because when it comes to your child's safety, there's no such thing as a short trip. Let's make child safety a habit—not an option. #ChildSafety #ChildRestraintSystem #RoadSafety #SafeTravel #EveryRideMatters

The glass might look full, but irresponsible choices drain what matters most. Your health, your family's peace of mind, and your future goals are all tied to the decisions you make today. One wrong choice on the road can cost everything tomorrow. Let's keep the bars full on our goals, not on our risks. 👉 Plan your ride home before you step out. Choose responsibility today. #SmartChoices #DriveSafe #ResponsibilityMatters #SobrietyDelivers #StaySafe #RoadSafety

Join us on 9 July 2026 for a seminar on Reducing Alcohol-Related Harms among Youth. Organized by Consumer VOICE, in collaboration with FSHI, Mysuru VVNSS & Christ College, the initiative focuses on awareness, prevention, responsible choices, and road safety. 📍 Christ College, Mysuru 🕙 10:00 AM #ConsumerVOICE #RoadSafety #AlcoholAwareness #Youth #PublicHealth

The Uttar Pradesh Government is set to introduce a Scientific Speed Management Policy, where speed limits will be determined based on factors such as road design, traffic volume, pedestrian movement, nearby schools, markets, and local conditions rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. The policy will cover both urban and rural roads, aiming to reduce crashes and save lives. Scientific speed management is a globally recognised road safety intervention. Setting safe and appropriate speed limits, combined with effective enforcement and awareness, can significantly reduce the risk of fatal and serious injuries on our roads. Evidence-based speed policies are not just about regulating traffic—they're about protecting lives. We hope more states adopt similar Safe System approaches to make India's roads safer for everyone.

Can scientifically designed speed limits save lives? The Uttar Pradesh Government is taking a data-driven approach to road safety by introducing scientifically determined speed limits based on road design, traffic patterns, and surrounding land use, instead of relying on uniform speed restrictions. The initiative aims to reduce crashes caused by speeding while making roads safer for everyone - from pedestrians and cyclists to motorists. Speed management is one of the most effective ways to prevent serious road crashes. When speed limits are evidence-based and supported by proper enforcement, they can significantly reduce the risk and severity of collisions. A welcome step towards safer roads. The real impact will depend on effective implementation, clear signage, and public compliance.

Drink smart. Stay safe. A great night out starts with making responsible choices. Responsible drinking isn't just about how much you drink; it's about looking after yourself and the people around you. Eating before drinking, staying hydrated, knowing your limits, planning a safe ride home, and looking out for friends can make all the difference. Small decisions today can prevent serious consequences tomorrow. Make every celebration a safe one. Choose responsibility, every time. #ResponsibleDrinking #DrinkSmart #StaySafe #KnowYourLimit #RoadSafety
