Accidents Stats 2005 - 2010 at MTP
Friday, 03 June 2011 16:16
Accidents in the Mettupalayam Police Station in the last few years since 2005 has commendably come down by about 25%, from around a 100 accidents to about 75 in 2010. This drop can be attributed to better policing, improved traffic management, and also increased driver awareness. However the end result shows some skewed figures, where the no. deaths has varied from 18 to 20 to 24 to 34 to 18 to 21. As there is no information as to the varying levels of deaths, one only ponders how this figure has come about. Taking some consolation that there have also been years where the number has crossed 30, its still high at 21. Some may suggest that the accidents could be high speed or in large vehicle related ones. Only facts and data can clarify this cloud.

Testimonials
Folks, It's a great work. To get more people's involvement the website has to come forward with the volunteers profile and their interest and also the intention of this website more precisely. may be an "ABOUT US" page will help more . The volunteers interest in spreading any particular message ( Non-Political ) and creating a Brand name for Mettupalayam among the outsiders. Typically most tourists stop in Mettupalayam for a short stay or stop have food or over night stay etc., which definitely helps local business and people. Lot of other things can be done but always doing with volunteers and getting outside support occasionally will help. Brand Mettupalayam in a good spirit and helping tourists as a non-profit basis will help tourists extend thier stay and spend more money in MTP helping locally all. Can the Moderator expalin about themsleves and create a BRAND METUPALAYAM discussion forum and I'm sure with more open mails from moderators more people will jump in.. Good Luck and Thanks a lot for the great work you guys are doing for Mettupayam.
