Public service vehicles in cities in developing countries are involved in a high proportion of road accidents and have very high fatality rates per million bus kilometres travelled per annum. This report analyses one year's accident records of the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) to identify the type of accident taking place, class of road user involved and factors affecting accident severity. 580 DTC bus drivers were interviewed to determine how far training, experience and working conditions affect accident rates. Over 200 DTC buses were surveyed to assess the affect that their general condition might have had on vehicle safety.
