The objectives of the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims are to provide a platform for road traffic victims and their families to:
👍remember all people killed and seriously injured on the roads;
acknowledge the crucial work of the emergency services;
👍draw attention to the generally trivial legal response to culpable road deaths and injuries
👍advocate for better support for road traffic victims and victim families;
promote evidence-based actions to prevent and eventually stop further road traffic deaths and injuries.
The World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims 2021 puts the spotlight on the reduction of traffic speeds – Low speeds, which have the potential to prevent many deaths and serious injuries, in particular those of pedestrians and all other vulnerable road users – children, elderly and the disabled.
