The committees make similar recommendations time and again, but those are hardly implemented. In the meantime, road crashes continue to take a heavy toll on lives and properties. Experts made the observation while talking to The Daily Star yesterday after a taskforce, formed for the government cause, held a closed-door meeting to discuss recommendations by four sub-committees. After the meeting, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan told reporters, "The four sub-committees made recommendations on implementing 111 recommendations [given by a committee] on curbing road crashes and bringing discipline in the transport sector. We have discussed those. We will hold more discussions in the next meeting."
