Experts highlighted that enforcement focuses on limited violation categories, overlooking dangerous behaviors like rash driving and unsafe lane changes. They called for shifting road safety management from counting accidents and challans to proactively analyzing traffic behavior and near-miss incidents to prevent fatalities more effectively.
