What could be solutions to reduce the road accidents?

Bangladesh is dealing with a serious problem when it comes to road safety. According to the World Health Organization, around 21,000 people die every year because of road accidents in the country. These accidents are not just causing a lot of sadness and loss for families; they are also costing the country a lot of money, somewhere between 1% to 2% of Bangladesh’s total money made in a year (GDP). This is a huge issue that needs quick action to make the roads safer for everyone. To tackle this problem, there are a couple of big challenges that need to be addressed. First, the roads and traffic systems themselves need to be improved. This could mean fixing roads that are in bad shape, making sure traffic signs are clear and visible, and putting in place better lighting and pedestrian crossings. To make these changes happen some drastical and effective technological solutions need to be invented. The solutions need also to be cost effective.  It’s a big task, but by focusing on both improving the roads and changing how people act on them, Bangladesh can work towards reducing the number of accidents and making the roads safer for everyone.
