MUMBAI, INDIA, July 14, 2010: Pyramids have been credited with supernatural or paranormal properties since the days of ancient Egypt. Now their power is to be harnessed to cut road accidents. Traffic officers in Nagpur have agreed to allow small pyramids to be placed at 10 accident-prone sites in the city to see if their claimed positive energy can reduce crashes.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Sahebrao Patil said the road safety initiative came about after a meeting with an expert in Vastu, an ancient Hindu system of construction and energy flow. “He told me that he had placed a number of pyramids on roads outside the city and the results were excellent. The number of accidents reduced,” Patil said.
