Over the past few decades, there has been an increased number of deaths in road accidents. The joint efforts to lower the rate of accidents and deaths are visible in the latest analysis reports of Motor Vehicles Act amended in 2019 over the thirty years of applicability of the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988. In the current research projects, the researcher examined the implications of the new road safety measu-rements included in the provisions of the 2019 Amendment Act and investigated the effectiveness of new safety parameters by comparing the percentage of accidents before and after the enforcement of the Act. The researcher has analysed a codified and narrative text to examine the provisions of this Amendment Act of 2019 through the reports of National Crime Records Bureau, Ministry of Home Affairs, and Mini-stry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH). The analysis of the data gathered shows that the provisions of the Act are meant to give effective tools to improve road safety measures.
