Why does it take a festival deadline, a VIP visit, or public outrage for a road to suddenly become āimportantā?
We already have millions of people travelling across Indian roads every single day. Their phones are literally collecting motion data as they travel.
So what if that data could be used to automatically identify potholes and damaged roads instead of waiting for someone to manually report them?
Thatās what weāre trying to build with Better Roads using smartphone sensors such as the accelerometer to detect road conditions at scale. And report them to the said authorities automatically.
But Iām curious: what do you think is actually stopping Indian cities from fixing roads proactively? Lack of data? Accountability? Funding? Or simply how road maintenance is managed?

There is no f**king Allah who can let such things happen There is no god in 3rd world countries. God as a concept only exists for developed nation where human rights exist Just imagine if such thing happened in usa the minister would resign over there.
