Road accident victims to get free cashless treatment: Nitin Gadkari

New Delhi, Jan 15 () Absence of coordinated trauma services by various related agencies including concerned ministries is resulting in 'avoidable deaths' and long-term disabilities in about 4.67 lakh road accidents in the country each year, experts said on Wednesday.
 Participating in a conference on 'Trauma care a National Mission', they said there is a strong need for strengthening trauma care system in the country to avoid these tragedies.
 "During the year 2018, about 1.51 lakh persons died in the country due to road accidents, which were mostly preventable.... In India better coordinated preventive measures are needed including enhanced trauma services, and improvement in road and vehicle engineering " said I K Pandey, Director General Road Development and Special Secretary, Ministry of Road Transport and Highways.
 Inaugurating the conference jointly organised by the International Road Federation along with Ministries of Road Transport and Highways, Health and Family Welfare, FICCI and World Health Organisation as part of the ongoing Road Safety campaign, he said efforts were on to rectify road accident spots.
 "Ministry of Road Transport, as part of improving road engineering has identified more than 4,000 black spots on national highways and is going all out to rectify them in a phased manner taking all safety measures. The ministry will also conduct road safety audits to further improve road engineering," said Pandey.
 Road Ministry as part of its effort to improve trauma service on National Highways has provided an ambulance, first aid service and one crane on every toll plazas, he said.
 "It is important to infuse knowledge of road safety and first aid among the public and also in roadside facilities such as dhabas and among truck drivers, who are most often the first to reach accident sites. The Government on its part provides free healthcare to accident victims but more needs to be done," said Rajiv Garg, Director General Health Services, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
 Deputy Head of WHO country office, Payden said "it is seen that road accidents is the number one cause of death among children and youngsters in the age group of 5 to 29 in India. Most of these deaths are avoidable with preventable measures including better trauma services, giving way to ambulances and availability of ambulances during the golden hour.
 "About 30 per cent road accident victims die after being discharged from hospitals, this needs to be taken care by rehabilitating them."
 International Road Federation (IRF) President Emititus K K Kapila stressed the need for extending Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY), popularly known as the Ayushman Bharat to road accident victims in the country.
 "India accounts for more than 11 per cent of the global road accident fatalities. India is also a signatory to the United Nation's Decade of Action for Road Safety which aims to reduce road fatalities by 50 per cent by the year 2020," he said. NAM DRR

Need to strengthen trauma care system for highway accident victims: Experts

New Delhi, May 6 () About 140 lives lost in over 600 road accidents over the course of the two phases of the nationwide lockdown between March 24 and May 3, according to a report by SaveLIFE Foundation.Of this count, 30 per cent of the victims were migrant workers returning to their homes, said the report by the non-profit organisation, which works towards curbing road accidents in the country.The report said over-speeding on empty roads has emerged as one of the most common reasons for deaths across states. India accounts for one of the highest road crashes fatalities across the globe with annual 5 lakh accidents in which 1.5 lakh people are killed."The country recorded more than 600 road crashes over the course of the two phases of the nationwide lockdown (24th March till 14th April and 14th April to 3rd May)," as per data compiled by SaveLIFE Foundation.During the last five weeks, around 140 lives have been lost due to road crashes across the country, with over 100 deaths recorded in across 9 states alone, it said. "Further analysis of these road crash deaths reveals that around 30 per cent of these victims were migrants travelling back home. Almost 57 per cent of the deaths were of people driving during the lockdown. The most common causal factor across these crashes was speeding," the report said. Tragically, the rest of the road crash deaths were of essential services workers like doctors etc who were travelling either from or to their place of work, it said.The states which recorded maximum accidents are Delhi, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Assam, Kerala, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Punjab and Tamil Nadu. The report said while there has been a dip in the absolute number of road crash fatalities during the lockdown due to suspension of public transport and general mobility, the rate of deaths in road crashes has remained unchanged, highlighting how unsafe Indian roads are even when the majority of the country has been under restrictions. Piyush Tewari, founder and CEO, SaveLIFE Foundation, said, "India suffers the highest number of road crash deaths globally each year. Though there will be a dip in that number this year due to the lockdown, 140 deaths in over 600 crashes goes to show gains achieved will be lost as soon as things go back to normal."He said the third phase of the lockdown is a golden opportunity for states to fix engineering faults in the roads and institute mechanisms for electronic enforcement so that when things become normal, road fatalities can be kept at low.

About 140 lives lost in 600 road accidents during lockdown: Report

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Hundreds of people are killed every year when they find themselves pulled underneath trucks. </li><li>This type of crash could be prevented by a simple piece of equipment called a side underride guard. </li></ul>Former US diplomat Sarah Debbink Langenkamp and her family moved back to the US from their post in Ukraine over safety concerns following the Russian invasion. Just weeks later, on August 25, 2022, the 42-year-old mother of two was killed when a 13-ton flatbed truck turned right into the bike lane as Langenkamp was bicycling home from her sons' new elementary school in Bethesda, Maryland.American roads are increasingly dangerous. Langenkamp was one of an estimated <a href="https://jalopnik.com/u-s-traffic-deaths-estimated-to-rise-to-46-000-for-202-1850223956" target="_blank" rel="noopener">46,000 road fatalities</a> in the US last year, and one of about 6,000 deaths from truck crashes.

Large trucks — those over 10,000 pounds — are involved in an outsized number of bicyclist, pedestrian, and passenger vehicle deaths. Road safety advocates say there are straightforward ways to prevent these deaths. One of these solutions is something called underride guards, which hang below the front, back, and sides of trucks to prevent people and cars from sliding under or getting caught beneath trucks in an accident. Side guards can also stop people and cars from being crushed by a truck's rear wheels.These simple pieces of equipment could save hundreds of lives a year, advocates say, but the trucking industry has fought them and the US Department of Transportation (DOT) has been slow to act. The truck that hit Langenkamp <a href="https://wtop.com/montgomery-county/2022/11/more-than-1000-bicyclists-expected-for-saturdays-ride-for-your-life-overnighter/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">didn't have a side underride guard</a>. Her husband, Dan Langenkamp, says if it had, his wife would still be alive. Last month, Democrats in the House introduced the Sarah Debbink Langenkamp Active Transportation Act, which would unlock federal funds for biking and pedestrian infrastructure.<h2><div type="image" title="A man clings to a lorry as migrants marching in caravan to Mexico City to request asylum and refugee status on their way to the United States, walk in Ulapa, Chiapas State, Mexico, on October 30, 2021." height="869" width="1280" msid="99241137" hostid="261" sizebytes="171742"></div></h2><h2>'A catch-22'</h2>The US government and road safety experts have known for at least 50 years that underride guards save lives. Rear underride guards have been mandatory for most trucks in the US since the 1950s. In 1969, DOT announced that the requirement would be extended to side guards. But the government never issued the regulation. Congress recently forced DOT's hand. The bipartisan infrastructure bill passed in 2021 included requirements — drawn from <a href="https://www.gillibrand.senate.gov/news/press/release/senators-gillibrand-and-rubio-representatives-cohen-and-desaulnier-introduce-bipartisan-legislation-to-strengthen-safety-measures-to-prevent-deadly-underride-accidents-involving-tractor-trailers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the bipartisan Stop Underrides Act</a> — to study the issue and determine whether the federal government should make rules.A year ago, more than <a href="https://www.gillibrand.senate.gov/news/press/release/senator-gillibrand-representative-cohen-call-on-dot-to-swiftly-execute-provisions-in-the-bipartisan-infrastructure-package-to-address-preventable-deaths-caused-by-underride-crashes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">two dozen members of Congress</a>, led by Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and Rep. Steve Cohen, urged DOT Secretary Pete Buttigieg to follow through on the infrastructure law's underride provisions. But nearly 18 months after the law's passage, an Advisory Committee on Underride Protection that the bill demanded be created still hasn't been set up."We don't even really know the scope and scale of the problem we're dealing with. Academics have estimated it's probably two to three times the amount that we think it might be," said Zach Cahalan, the executive director of the Truck Safety Coalition, a victims' rights organization that supports people who've lost a loved one or survived a truck crash. "It's like a catch-22. We haven't attempted to collect the data and when it comes time to estimate if this is a worthwhile safety countermeasure that's not unreasonable, we can't really assess it." Last week, the League of American Bicyclists and other cycling advocacy groups lobbied members of Congress to sign a letter to the chairman and ranking member of the House appropriations committee's subcommittee on transportation, housing, and urban development. The letter calls on Congress to urge DOT to extend its research on the impact of side guards to bicyclists, pedestrians and other unprotected road users."A lower sideguard will push the bicyclists or pedestrians out of the way of the rear wheel," the letter reads. "In many large truck-bicycle collisions, the person does not die from the initial impact but from being crushed by the rear wheel of the truck."A slew of <a href="https://www.boston.gov/news/city-council-passes-truck-side-guard-ordinance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">American</a> <a href="https://www.nyc.gov/office-of-the-mayor/news/101-15/city-begins-installing-truck-sideguards-protect-pedestrians-cyclists" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cities</a> and at least 47 other countries have implemented side guard mandates, according to the Volpe Center, a federal agency focused on innovation in transportation. Preliminary research has found that side guards are effective, including in crashes with unprotected individuals. In crashes where bicyclists are hit by the side of a truck, side guards reduce fatalities by 55 to 75% and in accidents with pedestrians by 20 to 27%, <a href="https://www.volpe.dot.gov/our-work/policy-planning-and-environment/lateral-protective-devices-side-guards-and-vulnerable-road" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to the Volpe Center</a>. The trucking industry isn't a fan. Industry lobbying groups argue the government lacks evidence to prove the benefits of side guards are worth the costs, which include weighing down trucks. "Until these devices can be shown to be reliable outside the test track, we believe Congress and regulators should focus on reducing crashes by addressing aggressive and distracted driving and investing in existing, proven safety technologies, including emerging connected vehicle technology," Sean McNally, spokesman for the American Trucking Association, <a href="https://annaleahmary.com/2022/10/protecting-passenger-vehicles-from-side-underride-with-heavy-trucks-sae-publication/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said last year</a>. Cahalan blames the trucking industry for "delaying and fighting against common sense safety reforms," not just with regard to underride guards. "They would rather risk knowingly — again, this is not new — putting the lives of pedestrians, cyclists, and all roadway users at risk so they have marginally more ability to move product," he said.

Biden could help save cars, bicyclists, and pedestrians from being pulled under trucks in an accident with a simple fix, advocates say

He didn't expect the victim to put him in a chokehold until police arrived.Jordan Patrick Leahy, 29, was found guilty by a federal jury after prosecutors presented evidence that Leahy threatened a Black man traveling with his family, according to a <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/florida-man-found-guilty-hate-crime-racially-motivated-attack-against-black-man-driving-his">statement</a> from the Department of Justice. On August 8, 2021, Leahy encountered the victim – named J.T. in the statement – as he traveled with his girlfriend and daughter. Leahy began to call J.T. racial slurs and "used his car in an attempt to force J.T. and his family off the road," according to the statement."Leahy's pursuit of J.T. and his family lasted nearly a mile and half before Leahy sideswiped J.T. as J.T. attempted to evade the attack. Leahy fled the scene of the accident, but stopped at the next red light. J.T. pulled behind Leahy at the light, and Leahy got out of his car, stormed at J.T., and tried to assault him, again yelling racial slurs," the statement read.Leahy tried to strike J.T., who happened to practice mixed martial arts, and put him in a chokehold until police arrived, according to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/florida-man-convicted-hate-crime-road-rage-attack-black-martial-artist-rcna44951?cid=sm_npd_nn_tw_ma">NBC News</a>."When officers from the Pinellas County Sherriff's Office arrived on the scene, Leahy made numerous statements evidencing his bias motive, including telling the officers that Black people need to be kept 'in their areas,'" the DOJ statement said. "Across America, families must be able to freely travel our public streets without fear of being attacked because of race," Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke said, per the statement. "This verdict should send a strong message that the Department of Justice remains firmly committed to prosecuting, to the fullest extent of the law, those who would use violence to enforce heinous racist beliefs."Leahy faces a maximum sentence of ten years in prison with three years of supervised release, as well as a maximum fine of $250,000.

 Addressing the 'Road Safety Stake-holders Meet,' Road Transport and Highways Minister made it clear that "there is a limit to testing one's patience" and those officials who compromised on road safety by not taking timely decisions or are accountable for faulty DPRs (detailed project report) or road engineering will have to face stringent actions.
 India is a country where more people die on roads than in militancy or extremism related incidents, he said and termed the scenario as "unfortunate and painful".
 The minister further noted that notwithstanding the the massive efforts to curb accidents there has been an increase in this space and India topped the list globally with 65 per cent of victims falling in the age range of 18-35 years.
 "Those non-productive, non-performing, dead assets in the Government ... should be shown the exit door. There should not be any hesitation. They lack sensitivity, they lack decision making, they make wrong DPRs and sit on the file for years. They neither take decisions nor allow others to take decisions. ... There is a limit to testing one's patience," Gadkari said.
 The Minister said: "We can not allow this to function. The government needs to take instant decisions. Those who do not work, those who do not take decisions and those who are involved in red-tapism... will be shown the exit."
 He said huge work has been done for building roads and adding highways but now was the time to weed out unproductive people from the system as was stressed by Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Narendra-Modi">Narendra Modi</keyword>. "We will touch 30 km a day road building this year. The Prime Minister asked what steps have been taken against those who do not work. How many of such people were given retirement. I have asked my Secretary about how many people were shown the doors for not working," the minister said.
 Reiterating government's commitment to road safety, the minister said 22 driving centres have been opened and another 1,000 are on the anvil as there is a shortage of 22 lakh drivers.
 He said massive work was being done on accidents spots with Rs 7,000 crore assistance from the World Bank, Rs 7,000 crore from ADB and urged automobile manufacturers also to come forward in this direction.
 He also called upon teachers to join the crusade for imparting education among students on road safety.
 The Minister urged states to follow the example of Tamil Nadu which has reduced its accidents by 24.4 per cent in the last 2-3 years on the back of various initiatives.
 He said that Tata Trust NGO has proposed helicopter services at high accident spots and organ donation could be promoted in those cases where victims can not be saved.
 Defence Minister <keyword id="6355121" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rajnath-Singh">Rajnath Singh</keyword> said it was a matter of concern as to why road safety was lagging behind and wondered why Indians "who could know the way of reaching to the Moon or Mars, failed to learn the ways of safety in reaching homes and offices." He urged the youth to use social media platforms like Whatsapp, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok for creating awareness among masses.
 Crediting Gadkari for massive works in this direction he reiterated Gadkari's words to imbibe sensitivity and said it was shocking to come across incidents where people instead of saving victims had been found making videos.

On the microblogging site Twitter, Sreenadh Menon requested the company for a replacement of the vehicle. "The front fork is breaking even in small speed driving and it is a serious and dangerous thing we are facing now, we would like to request that we need a replacement or design change on that part and save our life from a road accident due to poor material used," Menon wrote. Many other users too joined him with countless stories of quality issues, breakdowns and poor after-sales experiences on the same thread. "This is a misery that happened to me. The front fork collapsed while hitting a wall at a speed of 25kmph in eco mode along an uphill side," another user wrote. "Similar issue happened to some other customers on the plain road also. Take this as a serious and most urgent problem and resolve it soon," he added. <keyword id="6354720" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="ola" source="Orion">Ola</keyword> Electric was yet to address the new incident. Meanwhile, recently, a 65-year-old man in Jodhpur suffered serious injuries after the Ola e-scooter unexpectedly went into a reverse mode at full speed. Pallav Maheshwari, who is the son of the victim and returned to India last year and was 'ecstatic' about the country's EV revolution, posted on LinkedIn that his father suffered serious injuries in the incident. Several Ola Electric customers have complained about the reverse mode accelerator glitch in the past. Balwant Singh from Guwahati tweeted last month that his son met with an accident "due to fault in regenerative braking were on a speed breaker instead of slowing, the scooter accelerated, sending so much torque that he had an accident". Ola Electric had said it did a thorough investigation of the accident and the "data clearly shows that the rider was over-speeding throughout the night and that he braked in a panic, thereby losing control of the vehicle. There was nothing wrong with the vehicle".

New Delhi, Nov 19 () The number of people killed on Indian roads recorded a rise of 2.37 per cent to 1.51 lakh in 2018 and 70 per cent of the victims fell in the age bracket of 18-45 years, according to a report released by the highways ministry on Tuesday.
 A total of 1.47 lakh people were killed in road crashes in 2017, according to the annual report 'Road Accidents in India, 2018' brought out by the ministry's transport research wing.
 "Road accidents in the country have increased marginally by 0.46 per cent during 2018 with the year seeing 4.67 lakh road accidents as against 4.64 lakh in 2017," the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways said.
 The fatalities during the same period also rose about 2.37 per cent and 1.51 lakh persons were killed in 2018 as against 1.47 lakh in 2017.
 Road accident injuries have, however, showed a decrease of 0.33 per cent in 2018 as compared to 2017.
 During 2018, like the previous two years, young adults in the age group of 18-45 years accounted for nearly 69.6 per cent of road accident victims.
 The working age group of 18-60 accounted for a share of 84.7 per cent in the total road accident deaths.
 "The number of hit-and-run cases in 2018 accounted for 18.9 per cent of the deaths compared to 17.5 per cent in 2017. Head-on collision, followed by hit-and-run cases, followed by hit from the back accounted for almost 56 per cent of persons killed in 2018. The category, which registered the maximum increase in terms of persons killed in 2018, was collision with parked vehicles," the report said.
 The share of males in number of total accident deaths was 86 per cent, while the share of females hovered around 14 per cent in 2018.
 The report also brings out that while accidents, deaths and injuries registered a steep rise till 2010, they somewhat stabilised after that, with only marginal year-to-year fluctuations.
 Further, the compound annual growth rate of accidents as well as accident-related deaths in the period 2010-18 dropped drastically and was the least when compared with the previous decades, despite the high rate of growth of automobiles.
 National highways, which comprise 1.94 per cent of the total road network, accounted for 30.2 per cent of the total road accidents and 35.7 per cent of deaths in 2018.
 State highways, which account for 2.97 per cent of the road length, accounted for 25.2 per cent and 26.8 per cent of accidents and deaths, respectively.
 Other roads that constitute about 95.1 per cent of the total roads were responsible for the balance 45 per cent of accidents and 38 per cent deaths.
 According to the report, in terms of accident-related killings by type of road users, the number of pedestrians killed accounted for 15 per cent, the share of cyclists was 2.4 per cent and that of two-wheelers was 36 per cent.
 Together, these categories account 53.9 per cent of the accident-related killings and were the most vulnerable category quite in line with global trends.
 Under the category of Traffic Rule Violations, over-speeding proved to be a major killer, accounting for 64.4 per cent of the persons killed followed by driving on the wrong side of the road which accounted for 5.8 per cent of the accident-related deaths.
 Use of mobile phones accounted for 2.4 per cent of the deaths with drunken driving accounting for 2.8 per cent of the persons killed.
 Cases involving driving without valid licence/learners' licence accounted for 13 per cent of accidents.
 About 29 per cent of deaths were be attributed to non-use of helmets and 16 per cent of deaths to non-use of seat belts.

"You feel good about yourself making a choice like that," she said.If Mannion had run that yellow light, she would have approached the freeway on-ramp moments earlier, made it to work on time, and had lunch with her coworkers. She would have slept well that night.But Mannion stopped. And when she reached the freeway entrance minutes later, she thought she saw something. "But worse, I felt something," she told Insider. "I felt the impact of the car."In the hours that followed, she would learn that a woman had run across the on-ramp at the moment she entered the freeway.The immediate aftermath is a blur. Mannion called 911. A highway patrolman performed CPR. The police questioned Mannion, who begged them to breathalyze her or take her cellphone. "I wanted to make sure they understood that I was paying attention," she said through tears.But after the questioning, all they did was tell her she could go home. "I did not understand that," she said. "I could literally just go to the store right now or go to the movies, and no one would know what had happened."I just killed a person, and no one would know," she said.<h2>Accidental killers are often invisible</h2>Mannion is an accidental killer, or "CADI," a term describing a person who's caused <keyword id="12075532" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="accidental-death" source="Orion">accidental death</keyword> or injury.There is little published research on the subject and few resources available to those who unwittingly join the community. There seem to be <a href="https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/09/18/the-sorrow-and-the-shame-of-the-accidental-killer?source=search_google_dsa_paid&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwrJOMBhCZARIsAGEd4VGcg9gG8VxFhQVkv3-89D_l4JAx_p-x2HcsBjeeOtk03vnP6vxPH6saAtaDEALw_wcB_wcB">no self-help books</a> for the accidental killer, and <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/accidental-injury.htm">databases track only accidental deaths</a>, not the people who've caused them.The topic remains taboo, and the people affected - including physicians who miscounted a dose or veterans who mistakenly fired at a civilian - often find themselves facing a unique combination of grief, trauma, and fear.Most accidental killers "stay silent, consumed by shame and worried that the blood-debt we have incurred will somehow come due," David Peters, a veteran and chaplain who killed a motorcycle rider in an accident at age 19, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/global/2018/nov/29/what-happens-to-your-life-after-you-accidentally-kill-someone">wrote for The Guardian in 2018</a>.The highly publicized <a href="https://www.insider.com/alec-baldwin-discharged-prop-gun-rust-set-cinematographer-died-2021-10">shooting on the set of "Rust"</a> two weeks ago, in which the actor <keyword id="12362498" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="alec-baldwin" source="Orion">Alec Baldwin</keyword> fatally shot the cinematographer Halyna Hutchins with a gun that was being used as a prop, brought the uncomfortable issue to the forefront of culture - and to CADIs' minds."Immediately when I saw the news of what happened my heart sank for not only [Hutchins], of course, but also for Alec Baldwin, because I thought, 'I know exactly how he feels,'" Mannion said.<div type="image" title="Set of the movie &quot;Rust&quot;" height="2957" width="4435" msid="87590128" hostid="261"></div>Insider spoke with three other accidental killers about how their <keyword id="12319534" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="accidents" source="Orion">accidents</keyword> had changed their lives and the ways they've learned to cope.<h2>A life lost after a frugal decision</h2>"A day doesn't go by for accidental killers where we don't think about the life we took," Chris Yaw told Insider.The Michigan reverend's life was forever changed eight years ago.While renovating an older home, Yaw decided to put in a garage-door opener that he now believes was illegal. When the company came to install the device, Yaw signed a waiver acknowledging the risk that without a safety feature, the 800-pound oak doors could crush someone.The feature cost an extra $5,000, and the family barely used that garage bay, Yaw told himself at the time.One day five years later, his landscaper and friend stopped by to return a rake. Yaw said he was still unsure how, but the man ended up dead, crushed beneath the door."Because of my desire to do things on the cheap, he's not around anymore," Yaw said.<h2>'I will never forget the sounds of a mother's absolute grief'</h2>Lois Brown was finishing a holiday in Paris in 1983 when a family friend asked her to join her and her infant daughter on their drive back to England.Brown had had her license for only four months.Fifteen minutes after Brown took the wheel in France, a car overtook her on the left side, startling her. For a split second Brown lost her bearings because of the presence of another vehicle to her left.The car spun off the road, tumbling through trees and landing in a field. Brown and her friend turned to see if the baby was OK, but the child was gone.The baby's mother eventually found her in the field, unresponsive."The mother was holding her, and she was screaming," Brown said. "I will never forget the sounds of a mother's absolute grief."<h2>Distracting from the pain of a friend's accidental death for decades</h2>More than 50 years ago, Joe was a "young, impulsive, stupid, normal boy" living in Phoenix, where there wasn't a curvy road in sight and so teens like him frequently went drag racing, he said.But one night, because of either water on the road or a mechanical issue with the car, Joe, then 17, lost control, ran into a light pole, and totaled his Corvette, he said.He and the passenger, one of his best friends, seemed to be OK. "It wasn't bad enough that you would have said, 'That should have killed somebody,'" said Joe, who asked to use his first name only since his wife is the only one in his circles these days who knows about the accident.But at the hospital, doctors found that the wreck had somehow punctured Joe's friend's intestine. The friend developed sepsis and later died."It's one thing if you're guilty; it's another thing if you're not sure you're guilty," Joe, a recently retired pilot, told Insider.He joined the Navy to escape, and the distraction worked, he said. Only in the past few years has he received counseling through the Department of Veterans Affairs. He said that while just having someone listen had made a difference, it can never erase what happened."After 50 years, it doesn't go away," Joe said. "I'm still aware that Jack would have had a good life. He didn't, and that was my fault."<h2>CADIs experience a complicated blend of grief and fear</h2>The pain of an accidental killer can be more complicated than the pain of the victim's family. CADIs can all at once face trauma, grief, and fear about what could happen to them - and then guilt and shame for feeling that fear, <a href="https://openingthedoorspsychotherapy.com/">Babita Spinelli</a>, a psychotherapist who's worked with accidental killers, told Insider."Other types of loss and grief wouldn't have the extent of the fear," Spinelli said.<div type="image" title="mental health illness depression anxiety headache migraine therapy" height="1736" width="2604" msid="87590129" hostid="261"></div>Even the fear itself is complicated. On the one hand, CADIs don't want to face charges or a lifetime with a tarnished reputation. On the other, they feel they must pay."Sometimes people feel like, 'I should be punished, I should be treated with disdain,'" Spinelli said. "They're haunted by it."And while criminal charges are rare in cases of true accidents, civil lawsuits hardly offer absolution. "When the accident happened, all I kept thinking was, 'I can't fix this,'" Mannion said. "You cannot breathe life back into that person."Accidental killers can develop symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder including flashbacks and hallucinations, Spinelli said, as well as other mental-health issues like anxiety and <keyword id="11898482" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="depression" source="Orion">depression</keyword>.Some CADIs self-harm. Some fear themselves. Some brace for the karma they're sure is going to come back to hurt them. Some run away.Brown moved 13 times in the year after her accident. "It must have had something to do with me trying to get away from myself," she said. "But of course, that's impossible."<h2>Even relatives won't talk about it</h2>CADIs told Insider they felt burdened by secrecy. "There's so much shame, so much embarrassment, so much guilt," Yaw said. "Who wants to bring these things up?"Mannion said her friends and family members tried to avoid the subject, worried that discussing the crash would upset her further. Even those who did provide initial reprieve moved on quickly, leaving Mannion alone with her shame, she said."Even though I was still very sad, I just stopped talking about it to people, because it was almost like it created more of a burden," she said.Brown, too, initially found support from a group of fellow young Christians. But within months, she came to realize that her friends could not possibly grasp how deeply the accident had affected her. "They probably felt helpless, and I know my situation must have messed with their youthful sense of invincibility," she said. Brown felt her friends rejected her ongoing grief, believing it reflected self-pity and a lack of faith. "I think that it's taboo because if people were to look at it honestly," she said, "they would realize how very easily they could be in that position, and they don't want to think that."<h2>CADIs have found community on one website</h2>CADIs told Insider that <a href="https://accidentalimpacts.org/">Accidental Impacts</a>, a site started by a woman named Maryann Gray, had been monumental in giving them space to heal.Gray was driving down a country road when a child ran into the street. She swerved, hit her breaks, and skidded, but it was too late.After his accident, Yaw began researching accidental killers and stumbled upon <a href="https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/09/18/the-sorrow-and-the-shame-of-the-accidental-killer">a New Yorker article</a> featuring Gray's story. He encouraged her to start a foundation with him.Now the nonprofit hosts regular Zoom meetings for people around the world to share their pain with people who know how they feel.Accidental Impacts "was the only community I felt like didn't have secret thoughts about me or opinions," Mannion said.Brown found the organization thanks to a friend. It "was the first time in 38 years I met anybody who had an experience like mine," she said. "It was comforting to meet kindred spirits you knew understood your grief without you having to explain your grief."That is the only thing that has made a significant difference to me," she added.<h2>Counseling and taking action can help</h2>Talking about the experience with a therapist can be key for accidental killers to confront the trauma of what happened, learn healthy ways to manage the grief, and separate the experience from their identity."There's a lot of anxiety that they are not a good person. There's a lot of 'I am bad,'" Spinelli said. "The work is: You are not bad, what happened was bad."Sometimes people need more than talk therapy. Eye-movement-desensitization therapy, hypnotherapy, group therapy, and medications can also be helpful treatments for what's often PTSD, Spinelli said.Taking action in a way that can make accidental killers feel like they're doing good by others can help too, she said.Yaw is writing a survival guide for the accidental killer. Brown is starting a <a href="https://princespark.brownlowhealth.co.uk/article-the-taboo-grief-of-the-accidental-killer/">support group in her hometown</a> of Liverpool. And Mannion and Joe shared their stories with Insider in hopes that others may be emboldened to seek the help they need."It's still hard, trying to balance out protecting yourself with wanting to help other people," Mannion said. "But if there's any way someone can read this … well, maybe they'll get help."

4 accidental killers reveal what the horrific experience is like - and how they've lived with the pain and shame

<ul class="summary-list"><li>A bus rolled over on a Chinese mountain highway on Sunday, killing 27 and injuring 20. </li><li>Local media reported they were being transported to COVID-19 isolation, per national policy. </li></ul>Twenty-seven people died and another 20 were injured on Sunday when a bus carrying people being quarantined over COVID-19 overturned on a mountain road in southern China, according to reports.Local police reported "a passenger car rollover accident" early local time on a freeway between Guiyang and Libo, in the Qiannan prefecture, <a href="https://weibo.com/u/3059514213">in a post to social media</a>. The bus was an official government vehicle for transporting people to COVID-19 isolation, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/sep/19/anger-in-china-after-27-people-killed-in-covid-quarantine-bus-crash">The Guardian reported</a>, citing local officials.An investigation is under way and the survivors are receiving treatment, the paper reported, citing an official statement. Qiannan's wider region, Guizhou, accounts for around 70% of all new cases in China, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/china/bus-crash-kills-27-mountainous-southwest-china-2022-09-18/">Reuters reported Sunday</a>.The crash became a top trending topic on Chinese social media platform Weibo, before multiple angry posts suddenly disappeared, The Guardian reported.One related hashtag got 450 million views, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2022/09/18/asia/china-guizhou-quarantine-bus-intl/index.html">CNN reported</a>. Many of them complained about poor conditions while being taken to quarantine, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-62947897">according to the BBC</a>."What proof do you have that you won't be on that bus at night someday?" read one post, per the Guardian. One woman posted with the claim that she was one of the victim's daughters, and that her mother had been exceptionally careful in the pandemic, the BBC reported."My mom stayed at home for half a month," her post said, per the BBC. "She didn't go anywhere apart from going out for PCR tests ... but she suddenly got taken to quarantine and died."Unverified images circulated that appear to depict the bus, including one with its roof crushed, and hazmat-suited worker spraying it, per CNN. China has maintained a strict "zero Covid" policy, putting multiple regions in and out of lockdowns over the last two years, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/china-zero-covid-policy-lockdowns-global-economy-vaccine-treatments-pandemic-2022-8">as Insider's Hueling Tan reported</a>.It's resulted in extreme measures, such as, in one instance, <a href="https://www.insider.com/shanghai-bankers-traders-sleeping-in-offices-amid-covid-lockdown-2022-4">requiring 20,000 Shanghai bankers</a> to sleep at the office for a number of days amid a breakout.In June, President Xi Jinping held firm to his commitment to the policy despite considerable economic strain.

In a news conference last month, Nassau County Police Detective Lt. Stephen Fitzpatrick said Polevich was "absolutely aware of what happened" during the incident, the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/man-arrested-hit-and-run-nicki-minaj-dad-42abd10702f635dba900fc09ba70f9c0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Associated Press</a> reported. "He got out of the car and he looked at the deceased, got into his car, and made the conscious decision to leave instead of dialing 911, instead of calling an ambulance for the man," said Fitzpatrick. He added: "He went home and secluded the vehicle. He's well aware of what he did." Polevich was charged with leaving the scene of an auto accident with a fatality and tampering with evidence. "Charles Polevich was not only irresponsible and negligent in hitting Robert Maraj, but he was more concerned about running away and hiding himself than in seeking help for the man he injured," Crump and Napoli wrote in a <a href="https://twitter.com/BenCrumpLaw/status/1372988973191159816/photo/1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>.

Polevich's attorney, Marc C. Gann, <a href="https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/9543903/nicki-minaj-father-death-lawsuit/">said in a statement to Billboard</a> that his client expressed sympathies to the Maraj family. "While the civil suit is not unexpected, the criminal charges pending against Mr. Polevich have no bearing on the civil case," Gann wrote. "It has yet to be determined whether there was any negligence involved in the accident or the degrees of any negligence. I will add that the amount demanded is shocking to say the least and I don't believe is in any way reasonable."
