Abstract
Road Traffic Accidents have been a major economic problem in India and more so in the city of Bengaluru. The subtle difference in the economic and social impact of the RTAs on the individuals, families and the society need a concern. The traffic authorities in the city of Bengaluru have been proactive to deal with the occurrence of road accidents. The monetisation of the road accidents is not possible. The underreporting of the accident cases has also led to the improper analyses. The studies in respect of the sociological perspective is far and few. The present study is an empirical study undertaken in the city of Bengaluru to study the RTAs.
