Goa is known wordwide for its tourist destination image. Yearly lakhs of tourists over world enjoys its sun and sands. Now the things are changing for Goa its image is going to be known for number of road accidents . Whenever we are going through news papers you will find accidents images and news covered most of the front pages.
Why its happening ? not a single common goenkar is serius to find reasons behind this killings.
Transport ministry is taking serious measures to reduce such incidents by awareness through electronic media but fatal incident are increasing day by day.
Some years back there were some thousands of the vehicles on goan roads and now has been increased to lakhs. The life style of Goans is now changing for the fast tracks as a result high tec vehicles are purchased for high profile status symbol. But when time comes to drive such vehicles on roads we find difficult drive because of the poor quality roads. On the other side auto loan financing firms are immerged like a mushrooms, as a result people are getting easy spot money support for purchasing. Every lower middle class person can make his dream fullfilled of owing a vehicle by using finance schemes.
Todays fast life requires improved roads and here is main week point comes . We goans dont have proper roads developed. The NH 17 which runs from Polem to Patradevi needs urgent conversion to four lanes as this highway is a artery of Goa state. Major accident spots on this road should be analysed by exports and safety measures needs to be taken.
Secondly strict tests are to be taken while issuing permits and licence for vehicle riders. Only the candidates passing these strict tests should be allowed to take licence. Fast track court should be started for cases of accidents. And person responsible for the accident should be given extreme punishment.
