New Delhi, September 17(ANI): Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora launched the Delhi Road Crash Report 2021, which was prepared by the Traffic Unit of Delhi Police.This is the first time that the Delhi Traffic Police has replaced the word ‘Accident’ with ‘Crash’ in its annual report, formerly titled as 'Road Accidents in Delhi'. On this occasion, CP Arora said, "Based on the current evidence that crashes are preventable and not by ‘accident’, we know through years of analysis that these crashes can be identified and prevented. It is a conscious effort into working towards preventing crashes and saving lives, which the Delhi Traffic Police has been doing for several years. The efforts of the Delhi Traffic Police have led to a total reduction in road crash deaths in Delhi by 34 per cent over the last decade. Continuing our endeavour to save lives, we have now increased focus on more pedestrian-centric traffic management.
