Research has shown clearly that smoking is harmful to health, yet many people continue to smoke despite this scientific evidence. This behavior can be attributed to a variety of factors, including addiction, social influence, and the belief that research is incomplete, or short-term benefits outweigh long-term risks. This means people are going against scientific research of scientists also, because they all are knowledgeable and scientific and they reject scientific research by considering it as an incomplete.. They have become so much experts in road safety, they have stopped gaining expertise. But the sustainable future belongs to those who are self-regulated and lifelong learners.
Daily deaths caused by road traffic injuries (RTIs) is a global issue. All road users are claiming that they are well experienced road users and others are inexperienced. All road users are experts in road safety, but every day around 500 road users are dying in India in RTIs, it means their current intelligence is inadequate, all road users need supplementary intelligence.
Together let us find out what we were, are and will be. Together let us find out what is the problem, what is the cause of the problem, what is the solution to the problem and adopt the solutions to solve the problem. Let us find out what is right not who is right and do that what is right not what is easy.
Science has gifted us vehicles for development, but it has side effects too, vehicles are taking our lives on roads. 3200 road users are getting killed across the world due to road traffic accidents caused by vehicles. When there were no vehicles, the mode of transport was on foot, horse carriage or bullock cart, then there were no deaths in daily road transport. Vehicles are the main cause of increasing road transport deaths every day, which is a man-made disaster. But in reality it is a sub-creation of the Creator's creation. Either you solve the problem or leave the problem but don't live with the problem. If you can't leave the problem, then you must solve the problem at all costs.
A global validation challenge a signature initiative which is designed to require all road users to self-validate, self-introspect and self-persuade their deficiencies. Admitting flaws is a super step towards growth and authenticity. It demonstrates integrity, accountability and willingness to learn and improve for a sustainable future. If you are not participating in the process of self-validation, self-introspection and self-persuasion then you will will never come to know your flaws and you will remain the same. You cannot become what you want by remaining the same. If you want sustainable road safety then you need to upgrade to next level. "Upgrade can be determined by looking into the mind mirror".
Awareness campaign are not working and if plan A is not working plan B must be used. If we keep doing what we have always done we will keep doing getting what we have always got. People are rejecting any upgradation and updation advise in road safety because they have considered their intelligence as the ultimate. Intelligence is infinite not limited or ultimate.
Road users can add supremacy in their daily commute and become super expert for sustainable road safety. Road users can look into their mind mirror and discover that their intentions and actions match each other, if not then they can upgrade to next level.
Intention and action can be classified in 4 parts as below.
1. Intention is right and action is right
2. Intention is right and action is wrong
3. Intention is wrong and action is right
4. Intention is wrong and action is wrong.
In Treta Yuga, King Dasharath's intention was right but his action was wrong as he killed Shravan Kumar. Similarly, our intention may be right but our actions are wrong and that is why every day around 3200 road users are dying in road accidents across the world
