Hoardings encouraging speed

India has the dubious distinction of the maximum road accidents or traffic collisions in the world. A National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) report statistics revealed that annually more than 140,000 deaths from road accidents occur in India - these are 2012 figures.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that the major cause of traffic collisions is speeding. However, there is no ban on irresponsible advertising encouraging recklessness.

irresponsible and bad hoarding


At least the Tatas are responsible. I had complained about this hoarding to Ratan Tata and the hoarding was immediately removed. Usually the advertising agencies alongwith ignorant advertising managers in companies create such advertisements.
