Delhi Traffic Police will soon send real-time alerts to drivers using Google Maps and MapMyIndia when they approach accident-prone stretches in the city. The initiative aims to improve driver awareness and reduce crashes. The 10 identified blackspots are on major arterial roads including Grand Trunk Karnal Road, Ring Road, Outer Ring Road and Rohtak Road. In a first, the police will also integrate prescribed speed limits into the two navigation apps, allowing drivers to see the limit for the road they are on. Officials say the collaboration builds on the growing use of technology to manage traffic and share real-time information on congestion, diversions and road closures.
