India is one of the fastest developing countries in the world, resulting in more purchasing power for its citizens. There has been an explosion of vehicles on Indian highways, which has exceeded 400 percent from 2001 to 2013, i.e., it has increased only 133 percent over national highways in 12 years, resulting in an increase in the incidence rate in India. Blackspots are being declared all over the country with the aim of achieving the target of reduction in accident by upto 50% by 2020. In the middle-income countries, there are about 52 percent of the world's automobiles, but they account for more than 88 percent of the world's road traffic death. At this rate of development, fatal accidents are going to be the 5th largest cause of the crash in the world by 2020. Pedestrians, cyclists and motorbikes are around 57 percent of the mortality rate on the world roads, of which 15 to 44 year olds account for more than 60 percent of the world's total fatal accident rate. The review of the literature has been shown with its causes and solutions, the scenario of accidents occurring on various highways of India.
