🠶 There were 1.35 million road traffic deaths globally in 2016, with millions more sustaining serious injuries
and living with long-term adverse health consequences. Globally, road traffic crashes are a leading cause of
death among young people, and the main cause of death among those aged 15–29 years. Road traffic injuries
are currently estimated to be the 8th leading cause of death across all age groups globally, and are predicted
to become the seventh leading cause of death by 2030.
🠶 "Road traffic injuries can be prevented. Governments need to take action to address road safety in a holistic

actions that address the safety of roads, vehicles, and road users."
