Increased air pollution is an unseen consequence of speeding.
More carbon dioxide is emitted at higher speeds, contributing significantly to global warming. More nitrogen oxide is emitted at higher speeds leading to smog, acid rain and respiratory problems. Lower speeds can reduce particulate matter emitted by vehicles by 15%!
In a country where 44% Indian cities face chronic air pollution, small changes can make a huge difference.
Remember, slowing down also means breathing easy.

This month at CAG we will be looking at the unseen consequences of speeding.
Did you know that fuel consumption rises sharply at higher speeds? At higher speeds, engines have to work harder against the resistance created by the air pushing against your vehicle and this burns more fuel.
Fuel Efficiency can be increased by 10-40% on city roads and 15-30% on highways by maintaining moderate and steady speeds.

Every consumer has the right to safe and reliable products. Standards and certification marks ensure product safety and build consumer confidence. In India, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) sets national standards and certifies many products to ensure they meet safety and quality requirements. While BIS certification is mandatory for more than 400 product categories like electronics, pressure cookers, helmets, toys, stoves, cement, cables, etc, there are voluntary standards for many others as well.
