<p>In a move to reduce the increasing deaths resulting from road accidents, road transport minister Nitin Gadkari has devised a system for all new manufacturing cars.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The plan will direct all cars manufactured after July 1, 2019, to be equipped with airbags, seat belt reminders, alert system for speed raging above 80kmph, reverse parking alerts and a manual override over the central locking system.</p>

<p>Currently, only luxury cars have these facilities.</p>

<p>The alert system feature will notify the drivers on the increasing speed of the cars. It will give a sharper audio alert with the increasing speed after 80kmph. The alert will be non stop when the vehicle crosses 120kmph.</p>

<p>The manual override system will ensure exit in case the central locking system gets dysfunctional and traps passengers.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Transport ministry sources have also indicated that airbags and reverse sensors will also be made compulsory for light commercial vehicles.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The timeline for the plan has been approved and it will be notified soon.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Nitin Gadkari has approved the move for countering the growing road accidents.Thousands of passengers die in road crash every year.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The move seeks to ensure safety of passenger as well as pedestrian on Indian roads</p>
