Injury from fall

Presently, I am in Portblair for site seeing. Came two days ago and staying in a hotel room with sea view. It's drizzling now and then whole day and corridor is wet.

On the day of arrival at night, I tried to go to corridor,  slipped, lost my by balance and suffered left hand ring finger fracture,  cut injury on right foot, impact on left side of my back. 

I was clueless, how I fell, though holding the door side with left hand. Impact might have been severe, but for me taking support of door frame of hotel room. 

Last few years, the floor tiles used are very smooth,  let it be in office rooms, residences, hotel, banks, railway stations, airports, etc.

A standard should be brought to ensure that floor tiles are made anti-skidding.

What can be done to avoid such incidents?

Ensure vehicle in good condition.

Make a checklist, verify before every trip.

Use speed lockers to limit speed.

Use GPS trackers and monitor at a central location with immediate audio alerts to driver and monitoring controller for action.

If possible,  provide automatic engine stoppers, if crossing set speed or acceleration.
