Speed Limit Awareness India 🇮🇳 🚨⚠️
Every road in India, got its own set of speed limits…before “pushing the accelerator pedal” understand basics…
I. Route Type ⚠️
1. Residential Area
2. City Road & Flyovers
3. Undivided State Highways through villages incl. Ghat Sections & Hilly Areas
4. 4 lane Highways
5. 6 Lane Highways
II. Vehicle Type (Ground Clearance & Body Roll over Speed) ⚠️
1. Higher CG’s e.g SUV’s, Mahindra Thar, Pickup Trucks & others
2. Medium CG’s e.g Tata Nexon
3. Lower CG’s e.g Sedans, Hatchbacks
(Note: Lower ground clearance/lower CG’s to hold well even on curves)
III. Overdoing Speed Limits & Reaction time 🚨
1. Reduces time to react again based on medical conditions. Differs from person to person
2. Increases Stopping Distance over braking
IV. Speed Limits again depends on Surface Type 🚨
1. Dry Surface (Tyres to hold well over braking within Speed Limits)
2. Wet Surface (Hydroplaning + tyres won’t grip well, different tyre tractions over speed)
3. Loose Gravel/Sand/Mud (Tyres won’t grip well)
- (Note: Remember to check on each surface while riding/driving just like how cricketers continuously checks pitch)
V. Visibility (again based on eye sight)🚨
1. Clear Sky
2. Rain
3. Fog
4. Snow
5. Night (Avoid overdriving headlights at night)
VI. Contact Surface ⚠️
1. Every Automobile depends on Tyres, Tyres Contact Surface be it 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers, 4 wheelers, 6 wheelers or more…
2. Contact Surface varies with Tyre Pressure, Alignments, Load etc.
VII. Tyre Rubber Compounds ⚠️
1. Dry Grip
2. Wet Grip (Preferred)
VIII. Tyre Types ⚠️
1. H/T
2. A/T (More preferred for India incl. Offroad, Snow etc.)
3. M/T

(P.S - Anything I missed out, do add it for better Road Safety in India.)
ಸ್ಪೀಡ್ ಥ್ರಿಲ್ ನೀಡುತ್ತದೆ… ಆದರೆ ಬಿಲ್ ಕಳುಹಿಸುವವರೆಗೆ ಮಾತ್ರ!
ರೀಲ್ಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಓವರ್ಸ್ಪೀಡಿಂಗ್ ಕೂಲ್ ಆಗಿ ಕಾಣಬಹುದು, ಆದರೆ ನಿಜವಾದ ರಸ್ತೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅದು ಭಯಾನಕ ಅಪಾಯ ಉಂಟು ಮಾಡುತ್ತದೆ.
ನಿಧಾನವಾಗಿ ಚಾಲನೆ ಮಾಡಿ. ಸುರಕ್ಷಿತರಾಗಿರಿ.
ನಮ್ಮ ಗಮ್ಯಸ್ಥಾನವನ್ನು ತಡವಾಗಿ ತಲುಪುವುದು, ತಲುಪದೇ ಇರುವುದಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಎಷ್ಟೋ ಉತ್ತಮ.
Speed thrills… until it sends you the bill.
Overspeeding might look cool in reels, but on real roads, it’s risky business.
Slow down. Stay safe.
Because reaching late is better than not reaching at all.

Jaipur, Village Route 🚨⚠️
Disturbing Visuals 🚨
- Concrete Road followed by Tar
- Speed limit 40-50kmph route
1. Tractor ahead maybe just joined the road from “left side farm” & wanted to change lane to left.
2. Harrier EV Driver, overdoing speed & confused tractor driver… EV Driver Target 🎯 Fixated over speed & headON with Tractor.

@my_free_speech@BluMal90@DriveSmart_IN@dabir@varungrao Ertiga build quality just like any other Maruti Suzuki + an MUV not designed for speed for its boxy design. Only to carry more passenger and launched to compete with Innova.
Bengaluru, HSR Layout 🚨⚠️
How are these accidents happening more often within City Limits? Max speed limit 40kmph! 🤷♂️
Looks like some people not aware how to drive & at what speed within City Limits + Residential Areas?

Chikkamagaluru 🚨⚠️
Disturbing Visuals 🚨
19 year college students overspeeding without helmets + Riding brand new Royal Enfield Continental GT 650cc twin 47BHP. 19 year old no more…
Advising Parents: Tender Age, 100cc max to start with…+ India needs CC’wise licensing like EU.
@DriveSmart_IN@dabir@RCBengaluru@InfraEye@Belurr@sumanthchandar
@prithm@MORTHIndia@PMOIndia@nitin_gadkari Yes and around intersections same mistake carried forward on a daily basis…resulting major road risks around intersections….
@DriveSmart_IN@AlfredT27518342 Thar with the Soft Top, driver need to breath some fresh air ahead instead of reversing on curve adding up chain collision risk over cluster…
@dabir@yrharikrishnan@DriveSmart_IN@varungrao True. Ertiga driver maybe distracted while overtaking, poor judgement later…
In such conditions, here bus driver should had flashed headlights multiple times…headlights works well to guide drivers to slow down…
True…today’s era more distracted drivers around…majority busy with smart phones…all fast routes with 4 lanes to help.
On undivided State highways if people are distracted/drowsy/poor judgement while overtaking adding up major headON risks and same risks following on 4 or 6 lane highways when car jumps median when driver distracted/drowsy or overdoing speed on wet surface…median height usually 1-1.5ft…
One of the best DC clip so far, showcasing usage of Zebra Crossing…how to drive safe around intersections… + driving disciplines along with patience…
If everyone follows it, no road risks for anyone… just little bit of patience and disciplines, life is easy for all commuters and pedestrians…
Absolutely! 650cc, 3rd gear onwards more turbo feel…not for any 100cc upgrade too…
Recent times someone asked me can be purchase one for his son, I told him give him not more than 100cc motorcycle… tender age, speed to thrill, won’t be able to control + its weight more towards front especially interceptor or GT.
