States Lag in Implementing Supreme Court-Directed Trauma Care System for Road Safety
India records about 1.77 lakh annual road fatalities, with no state fully implementing the Supreme Court's mandated trauma care system. Key measures include a unified emergency number (112), GPS-equipped ambulances, Good Samaritan laws, trauma registries, and rescue protocols. Challenges cited are poor inter-agency coordination, multiple emergency numbers, and lack of standard procedures. Some integration progress exists, such as partial linking of highway helpline 1033 with 112, but comprehensive resource deployment remains incomplete across states.
