    Bangladesh is progressing day by day in every sector, but the negative side is that it’s increased rate of Road Accident (RA). It is a big alarming issue and loss for our developing country. If we compare the overcrowded population of this country to our road and transport infrastructure, it can be seen that it is not sufficient. For this reason, unintended road accidents are constantly happening, and its victims are people from all walks of life. According to Bangladesh Jatri Kalyan Samity (PWAB) everyday more than 21 people loses their lives in RA in Bangladesh (2019). No research or study can prevent road accidents unless the proper actions are taken. There are a bunch of existing factors which are directly impacting RA in Bangladesh. Uneducated drivers, defective vehicles, weak traffic management, people's lack of knowledge, unregulated speed, road and its geometric inadequacy, lack of political will, law and order compliance, location type, weather, time etc are the factors that have an effect on RA. The objective of this paper is to uphold the key and causative factors of RA and to provide viable solutions with pragmatic propose model through comprehensive study based on RA datasets of NIRAPAD SARAK CHAI (NISCHA) (from 2012 to 2019) and various newspapers, online articles, various research papers in between the year (2000 to 2019) to mitigate RA in Bangladesh.
