Any accident that takes on road is called road accident. It is a daily occurrence in Bangladesh. Road accident is increasing by leaps and bounds. It occurs in Bangladesh primarily owing to the reckless driving of the drivers. They often go almost mad to overtake without caring for traffic rules and regulations. Road accident can cause irreparable loss and injure anyone badly. Sometimes, it takes a toll of valuable lives. The effect of road accident is pathetic. A little mistake can cause a lot of tears to anybody. somebody loses his/her dear and near ones for ever. Pedestrians are the worst to make sure that drivers abide by traffic rules. Exemplary punishment should be meted out to those who are held responsible for road accidents. The old vehicles should not be allowed to ply in the road. Pedestrians should be encouraged to use the footpath and over-bridge while crossing the road. The government should launch a programme to tackle it and enforce law and order strictly to curb road accidents. The people from all walk of life should come forward to tackle the problem jointly.
