Pedestrians are neglected because they make no noise. They go quietly findings their ways into prevailing chaos. At the city level, each and every resident is a pedestrian, but treated as a neglected road user. A recent study conducted in Indian Cities states that more than 20% of the road accidents involve pedestrian. Hence safety of pedestrian is a basic step to create safer city.
