Author(s): Prashant Rajdeep, Lajja Patel, Steffy CD* and Preeti Pancha
Objectives: Attenuating the vehicular speed after lifting of lockdown during Covid-19, by employing visual reaction time (RT) as a tool to prime citizens for creating decorum of driving and checking the road traffic fatalities. Background: It is indispensable to curb the driving speed post lockdown to avoid accidents. Even though, the impact of inactivity on RT has been well established, an insight into the new method can deal with the gross issue of road traffic casualty worldwide. Method: Using a web-based platform (http://physicsiology.com), RT was derived by visual stimulation test. Of which, the slowest and the fastest RT were obtained. Using these and prefeed average vehicular speed before lockdown in the website the post lockdown vehicular speed were quantified for the participant. Apart from spreading awareness t.. Read More»
