The Institute of Road Traffic Education with the support of FADA (Federation of Association of Dealers of Automobiles) organised a one day Workshop in New Delhi on 14 January 2004 on the Hazards of Night Driving. A sizeable number of accidents happen during nighttime, as, the driver's vision is limited and the risk factors increase manifold. Other factors like deficiencies in the road infrastructure, incompetent or fatigued driver compound the problem. The Workshop focused on analyzing the reasons why night driving is hazardous and the precautions and actions which the authorities can take to make driving safer during night and during other difficult conditions when visibility is affected. The presentations on this event were made by IRTE, and other participants from CRRI, ARAI, Delhi Traffic Police etc.
