&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;* Barring some major cities, the fear of hefty traffic fines last year was short-lived, new data on road accidents suggests&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Just over a year ago, dramatic traffic penalties under the amended Motor Vehicles Act made headlines across the country. The centre claimed the fines would curb road accidents. But latest government data show the reality was mixed and the fear of the law may have fizzled out quite soon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;A total of 154,732 people died on Indian roads in 437,396 accidents last year, the National Crime Records Bureau&amp;rsquo;s (NCRB&amp;rsquo;s) latest update shows. Around 139,000 of these accidents took place after the increased penalties kicked in on 1 September, 2019. Compared to the same period in 2018, this was a 4% drop.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;But a closer look shows the decline was the sharpest (7.5%) in September, and began tapering October onward. A year-on-year comparison adjusts for seasonal effects since September anyway sees the fewest road accidents every year.&lt;/p&gt;
