🧠 Problem Title: Unsafe Driving by Food Delivery Riders Due to Strict Delivery Time Pressure
📝 Problem Description

In recent years, the use of online food delivery services has increased significantly in urban areas. Food delivery riders are often required to deliver orders within a short time limit set by mobile applications. Due to this strict time pressure, many riders tend to drive at high speeds, take risky turns, ignore traffic rules, and use mobile phones while riding., This behavior increases the chances of road accidents involving delivery riders, pedestrians, and other vehicles. Riders may also feel stressed because of ratings, penalties, or incentives linked to delivery time, which further encourages unsafe driving practices., This problem can be observed frequently in cities where delivery riders are seen rushing through traffic, jumping signals, or driving on the wrong side of the road to save time. It not only puts the rider at risk but also endangers public safety., As online delivery services continue to grow, this issue is becoming more common and serious. The combination of time pressure and traffic conditions creates a situation where safety is often compromised for faster delivery.
