India has far more two-wheelers than cars. The 57 million figure probably excludes the former because in 2016 India had ~250 million vehicles of all types [0] (so it's probably over 300 million now). This is an important distinction in this case because 48% of road fatalities in India involve 2-wheelers, vs 30% for 4-wheelers [1]. This is just pedantics of course - there's no doubt that Indians' traffic hygiene in general is abysmal. I was living that nightmare every day until Covid put a pause on it :-).
