The data further shows that Jammu district recorded the highest number of accidents at 467, with Srinagar district following closely with 201 accidents.

To curb road accidents and ensure the safety of people, the Traffic Police have issued a total of 612,842 challans till May this year, including 425,972 court challans and 186,869 compound challans.

Experts call for public education, road improvements and stringent law enforcement to curb accidents.

“Accidents happen because of excessive speed, overloading, poor road connectivity, and aggressive driving. Vehicle problems, breaking traffic rules, and lack of experience also contribute to fatalities,” they said.

They added that road safety measures and awareness campaigns are crucial to protecting commuters’ lives and reducing the tragic toll of road accidents. (KNO)
