Road Safety In The Himalayas - Sikkim Old Silk Route - Convex Road Traffic Safety Mirror
A convex road traffic safety mirror is installed at a hairpin bend on the Old Silk Route in Zuluk, Sikkim, India, on April 17, 2026. Local authorities have recently placed these mirrors at blind turns to enhance safety and prevent accidents. The route, known for its high altitude, unpredictable weather, and the Zig-Zag road with 32 hairpin turns over 30 km, features steep, unfenced drops of up to 800 feet. These mirrors are crucial for visibility, aiding drivers in avoiding head-on collisions. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
