It is necessary to reduce the number of injured and killed in traffic, through education of traffic participants and joint preventive actions, because in 2024 in the Republic of Serbia, 514 people died in traffic accidents - this is the central message of representatives of the Ministry of Interior - Traffic Police Administration, Ministry of Health, Traffic Safety Agency, PE "Roads of Serbia" and AMSS, from the joint promotional action held on April 25, 2025 on the Republic Square in Belgrade.
Preventive activities are also carried out in schools, health institutions and other subjects, focusing on the need to obey speed limits, the mandatory use of seat belts, the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol and other risky behavior in traffic.
The importance of such actions is huge if you bear in mind that of the 514 traffic fatalities in Serbia in 2024, almost half were pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists, that every fourth person killed was under 30 years old and that 16 children died in traffic.
In today's action, the representatives of PE "Roads of Serbia" informed all interested visitors about the activities that PE "Roads of Serbia" is conducting with the aim of increasing traffic safety and the educational campaigns that it has been conducting for the last 5 years.
