<p>As the United States is recording scorching temperatures and oppressive heatwaves, road rage incidents are on the rise, media reports said citing studies that build a correlation between heat and aggressive road behaviour.&nbsp;While road rage can be triggered by various reasons, the prolonged and intense heatwaves this summer are identified as a major factor contributing to increased aggressive behaviour&nbsp;on the roads.</p>

<h2><strong>Fatal road rage incidents in Texas, New York</strong></h2>

<p>In Texas, where record-breaking heatwaves and triple-digit temperatures are seen, a tragic road rage incident resulted in the death of a 37-year-old woman. The victim's husband reported that an altercation with another driver escalated when the other driver fired shots at their car, ultimately killing his wife.</p>

<p>“I completed the pass. I got into the right lane, and he started to zoom past me … But then he leveled off when he got to me, and he like moved over, like pushing me but not touching me because I moved over too," Zane Jones told in a conversation with CBS media portal.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Studies over the years have demonstrated a clear correlation between aggressive road behaviour and hotter temperatures.

<p>Research from various sources cited by the Guardian indicated that drivers tend to display more aggressive actions, such as honking and making rude gestures, during extremely hot weather.</p>

India: At least 10 killed, 26 injured after truck hits four vehicles, rams into hotel in Dhule

<p>A tragic accident in rural Manitoba, Canada has claimed the lives of at least 15 individuals, as reported by local authorities. The incident occurred on Thursday afternoon when a truck collided with a bus carrying senior citizens at an intersection. The bus was heading to a casino near Carberry, travelling south on Highway 5, while the semitrailer was heading east on Highway 1, shared Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer Rob Lasson&nbsp;while speaking at a news conference.</p>

<p>The collision took place at the intersection of the two highways, north of Carberry, which is approximately 170 kilometres (105 miles) west of Winnipeg. Lasson stated that it was immediately evident that this was a situation involving multiple casualties. In addition to the 15 fatalities, 10 individuals have been admitted to a hospital for treatment, including the drivers of both vehicles.</p>

<h2><strong>‘Unprecedented’ accident</strong></h2>

<p>The response to the accident was swift, with 12&nbsp;ambulances and an air ambulance rushing to the scene. Jennifer Cumpsty, executive director of Acute Health Services, confirmed this information. Lasson expressed that such a mass casualty incident on Manitoba's roads is unprecedented, and the investigative team is grappling with the emotional toll it has taken on them.</p>

15 dead, 10 injured as bus carrying elders collides with truck on highway in Manitoba, Canada

<p>A total of 15 Asians, including Indian expatriates, were hurt in a hit-and-run accident on Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street in Kuwait on Sunday, according to media reports.

<p>India saw a sharp 79 per cent rise in road accident deaths due to red-light jumping in the year 2020 compared to 2019, a latest report said.</p>

<p>However, the number of total road accidents and the fatalities declined by 18 percent and 12.8 percent, respectively, in 2020.</p>

<p>Indian Ministry of Road Transport and Highways' report 'Road Accidents in India - 2020' revealed that a total of 3,66,138 road accidents were reported across the country in the calendar year 2020, which claimed 1,31,714 lives and caused 3, 48,279 injuries.</p>

<p>Out of the total road accidents in 2020, 919 were caused by jumping of traffic signal which killed 476 people, which is a significant increase from 2019, when 266 people died due to red light jumping.</p>

<p>Apart from red-light jumping, another category which saw a rise in fatalities was driving on the wrong side of the road.</p>

<p>As many as 3,099 people died in accidents due to driving on wrong side of the road in 2020 compared to 2,726 deaths in 2019.</p>

<p>Other factors attributed by the Indian government to the reduced number were better traffic management and implementation of the new Motor Vehicle Act.</p>

<p>At least one out of 10 people killed on roads across the world is from India, according to the World Health Organization and though the Indian government's report says the number has declined, it is still huge and accounts for world's 11 percent road accident fatalities.</p>

<p>The report said that young adults in the age group of 18 - 45 years accounted for 69 per cent of fatal road accident victims during 2020 while people in the working age group of 18 – 60 years share 87.4 per cent of total road accident fatalities.</p>

<p>It said that the number of road accidents has been on a decline since 2016 except for a marginal increase of 0.46 per cent in 2018.</p>

<p>"For the second consecutive year, the total number of road accidents fatalities has declined in 2020.</p>

<p>Similarly, the number of persons injured has been on the decline since 2015," it said.</p>

India experiences 79 per cent rise in road accident deaths due to red-light jumping in 2020

<p>Ten people were killed after a tourist bus collided into a car in southern Egypt on Wednesday.</p>

<p>Among those killed include four French, one Belgian and five Egyptian tourists.</p>

<p>A clip circulating online purportedly showed a tourist bus in flames with people trying to put out the fire. WION could not verify the authenticity of the video.</p>

<p>Fourteen others —eight French and six Belgians —were taken to hospital with "broken bones, bruises and superficial injuries", governor of the southern province of Aswan Ashraf Attia&nbsp;said, according to AFP.</p>

<p>The injured tourists are said to be in a stable condition.</p>

<p>The accident took place on the 300 kilometres (186 mile) road connecting Aswan and the famed Abu Simbel temple further south.</p>

<p>This is the second accident that has taken place in a week. On April 8, a bus crashed on a highway near the Red Sea, killing three including two Polish tourists.</p>

<p>Egypt has been reporting thousands of traffic accidents every year. Poor transportation and safety records, poor enforcement of traffic laws are just some of the examples cited for such deadly accidents.</p>

<p>According to Egypt’s official statistics agency, there were around 10,000 road accidents in 2019, the most recent year for which statistics are available, leaving over 3,480 dead. In 2018, there were 8,480 car accidents, causing over 3,080 deaths, reports AP.</p>

<p>The series of accidents come at a time when Egypt has been struggling to keep its tourism industry running that has been marred by Covid pandemic and low tourist turnout on the account of political upheaval after the country's 2011 Arab Spring revolution.</p>

<p>The tourism sector employs some two million people in a country of 103 million and generates more than 10 per cent of GDP.</p>

<p>People generally avoid assisting or reaching out to a person in need on the road or after an accident because they are afraid of police investigations and other legal procedures, even though it is our duty as citizens to assist someone in need.</p>

<p>While police and governments frequently state that assisting an injured individual after an accident is a humanitarian act for which you will not be prosecuted.</p>

<p>Despite this, ordinary people are afraid to take the injured to the hospital. However, the Indian government has launched a one-of-a-kind programme to address this issue.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways said on Monday that it has created a system for 'Good Samaritans" under which people who save the lives of road accident victims by transporting them to a hospital within the 'golden hour' after the accident will receive a financial reward of Rs 5,000.</p>

<p>The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) announced in a letter to all state and union territory principals and transport secretaries that the programme will be in force from October 15, 2021, to March 31, 2026.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The ministry released guidelines for a "scheme for grant of the award to a Good Samaritan who has saved the life of a victim of a fatal motor vehicle accident by administering immediate assistance and rushing to hospital/trauma Care Centre within the Golden Hour of the accident to provide medical treatment."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Aside from the prizes awarded in each case, the ministry stated that there would be ten national-level awards of Rs 1,000,000 each for the most deserving Good Samaritans (to be chosen from all those who have been honoured during the year).</p>

<p>If more than one Good Samaritan saves the lives of several victims, the prize will be Rs 5,000 per victim rescued, up to a maximum of Rs 5,000 per Good Samaritan, according to the rules.</p>

Indian govt to award Rs 5,000 for taking injured to the hospital after a road accident

<p>A few days ago, a Russian driver froze to death when his car broke down on an infamous road between the&nbsp;Yakutsk and Magadan cities. Following that, Google Maps has decided to make sure such an incident never happens again.</p>

<p>After an 18-year-old boy and his friend had gone missing, the local police searched the cold areas for almost a week and later found him stuck in his car which was covered in snow as the temperature had climbed down to -50 Celsius.</p>

<p>The two friends were found on an infamous&nbsp;Road of Bones, which the locals claim is a dangerous and abandoned road in the area. As the driver froze to death, his passenger was rushed to the hospital and treated for frostbite who later explained how they got stuck and the radiator of their car had malfunctioned.</p>

<p>Since this incident, Google Maps has decided to remove the path from its system to avoid any such future incidents, especially in the winters. The approximate time shown between the two cold cities was usually 31 hours.

<p>The decision has also been taken as the condition of the road becomes hazardous due to lack of snow clearing equipment and scarcity of traffic in the area during winters.</p>

Officials in the northern city of Skardu said a bus headed to Rondu district came off the road and slid into a ravine after the driver lost control following a sharp turn. Also read: 20 killed in road accident in Pakistan "There were 26 passengers in the bus, 19 of them were killed on the spot while seven others were critically injured," local administration official Khurram Pervazi said. A second official Ghulam Murtaza confirmed the toll. Also read: 27 killed in rain-related incidents in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa On Sunday five people died and 17 were injured when a bus fell into a ravine near the town of Arja, northeast of Islamabad, said local official Abdul Hameed Kiyani. Pakistan has one of the world's worst records for fatal traffic accidents, many blamed on poor roads, badly maintained vehicles and reckless driving. The country's northern mountainous areas have a particularly appalling record with often unpaved roads along sheer cliffs setting the scene for numerous gruesome traffic accidents over the years.

This could’ve had a completely different outcome and we feel so blessed that it was not any worse. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for all of the prayers, phone calls, texts and messages. It means the world to us that we feel so much love and support from you all at this time! I will keep you all updated as we embark on this new journey! TODAY: Feeling so much better! We are both healing! Jared is well on the road to recovery after having major back surgery! We are doing physical therapy together a few times a week! Our relationship is stronger than ever and we have so much to be thankful for! Life can take you in many different directions and we are just so happy to be here for it all!

Fast-forwarding to today, Broxterman then revealed they're "feeling so much better".&nbsp; Broxterman, who is a friend of Hart's, shared footage of herself walking with crutches and images from the crash.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/actor-kevin-hart-injured-in-los-angeles-car-accident-247081">Actor Kevin Hart suffered major injuries in a car accident in Los Angeles</a>.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The accident took place on Sunday, September 1. As per sources, Black was driving Hart's 1970 Plymouth Barracuda at the time and turned from southbound Cold Canyon Road to eastbound Mulholland Highway.<br />
<br />
Black lost control of the car and the vehicle veered off the road--rolling down the northern embankment. Hart and Broxterman were passengers. The Highway Patrol also determined that Black was not "under the influence of alcohol at the time of the collision".<br />
<br />
