This means that on average every day in Serbia at least one person dies in traffic accidents, while dozens of people are injured.
The most vulnerable road users are pedestrians, motorcyclists and young drivers, and among the most common causes of accidents are inappropriate speed, driving under the influence of alcohol, carelessness and non-compliance with traffic regulations.
Although the number of fatalities has decreased in recent years compared to the earlier period, experts warn that the number of victims is still high and that additional safety requires more responsible behavior by all road users.
