Haryana using live-map technology to identify accident-prone areas: official

The Haryana government is using live-map technology to curb road accidents and to prevent the overloading of vehicles, chief secretary Sanjeev Kaushal said Thursday.

“Haryana is using live-map technology to identify accident-prone areas. Using this technology, a grid is automatically generated for such places on the live map and the police get information about such places immediately. I have also directed officers that the data of live map technology should be shared with departments like police, public works, health, transport and urban local bodies so that special focus can be given on such accident prone areas to overcome the road accidents across the state,” Kaushal said after a meeting of the Road Safety Fund Management Committee.
