Accidents

Over a million people a year are killed in traffic accidents because of poor infrastructure, clear road signs, lack of seatbelts and drinking. About 70 percent of people killed are under the age of 50. It is projected that this number will increase by 2020 to 8.4 million from 5.1 in 1990 according to a study by WHO.
