Tips for your answer

Apply the disaster-management cycle—prevention, mitigation, preparedness and response, to road safety instead of treating accidents only as a traffic-enforcement problem.
Remember MoRTH’s 4Es, Golden Hour, emergency number 112 and the Supreme Court’s 2026 recognition of trauma care as part of Article 21.
Do not spend the entire answer listing causes of accidents. The question specifically demands linking road safety with disaster-risk reduction and emergency trauma management.
