|
| ## SLIDE 2: THE PROBLEM |
|
|
| - **461,312** road accidents annually in India (MoRTH 2022) |
| - **168,491** fatalities — 18.5 deaths EVERY HOUR |
| - **50%** of deaths occur within the Golden Hour (first 60 min) |
| - Only **20%** of victims reach hospital within Golden Hour |
|
|
| ### Why victims die: |
| 1. Bystanders don't know WHERE the nearest hospital is |
| 2. Don't know WHICH number to call (beyond 100) |
| 3. Fear legal consequences (unaware of Good Samaritan Law) |
| 4. On highways, nearest services are unknown |
|
