Abstract:
Over the last five years, South Africa has seen a decline in road crash fatalities; however,the reduction has not been significant to meet the 2010 - 2020 Decade of Action goals.Performance thus far is slightly below the set targets for the 2016 - 2030 National RoadSafety Strategy (NRSS). Therefore, if the set rate of reduction is consistently met then the NRSS targets will be met.This presentation aims to provide an overview of road safety in South Africa from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022. The Road Traffic Management Corporation is mandated by the Road Traffic Management Corporation Act, No. 20 of 1999 to report on road crashes in South Africa.
