Every year, 1.19 million people die in road accidents worldwide, with 92% of deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries, including Bangladesh. Experts at a Dhaka Ahsania Mission event emphasized the inadequacy of existing transport laws in ensuring road safety. They called for a comprehensive Road Safety Law covering infrastructure, vehicle standards, user safety, and post-crash management. The law should follow UN recommendations to significantly reduce road casualties and protect vulnerable road users like pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists.
