The number of vehicles in India is quickly increasing as a growing middle class can now afford to buy cars. India's road conditions have not kept up with the exponential growth in number of vehicles.

Various causes for this include:
* Private encroachments
* Non cooperation among drivers
* Unscientific road design
* Lack of free ways/exit ways where local roads and main roads intersect
* Lack of demarcated footpaths
* Lack of bus bays
* Lack of cycle tracks
* Lack of coordination among various government departments (e.g. digging of roads by telecom/water department and leaving it open)
