Ironically , Road Traffic Accidents (RTAs) have emerged as a new health challenge in India which not only leads to injuries, disabilities and loss of precious human lives but also imparts a substantial economic burden on the family concerned and nation as a whole. The number of fatalities in RTAs is like a tip of the Ice berg when compared with total number of accidents.

Speaking during occasion, Mr. Sandeep Dogra said that keeping facts and figures of RTAs and consequences on the person, family, community, state and nation as a whole, Max Hospital launched the center . Through this centre, our endeavour will be dealing with and avoiding accidents especially RTAs. It involves spreading awareness, preparedness, response and recovery in order to lessen the impact of trauma.

Studies have shown that the vehicle population and the RTAs have increased significantly over the last forty years with maximum fatalities in pedestrians and two wheeler occupants.  The RTA fatalities from the state of Punjab (37.51%) are found to be consistently higher than other states viz. Haryana (28.35%), Union Territory of Chandigarh (13.26%) and Himachal Pradesh (9.81%) and the rest of victims (11.07%) belong to neighbouring states.
