EU’s roads by far the safest in the world
Over the previous decade between 2010 and 2020, the number of road deaths dropped by 36%. This was short of the target of 50% fewer deaths that had been set for that decade. However, with 42 road deaths per 1 million inhabitants, the EU remains the continent with the safest roads in the world. As a comparison, the world average lies at more than 180.
Based on preliminary figures, 18 Member States registered their lowest ever number of road fatalities in 2020. EU-wide, deaths fell by an average of 17% compared to 2019 though the reduction was far from uniform with the largest decreases (of 20% or more) occurring in Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, Spain, France, Croatia, Italy, Hungary, Malta and Slovenia. In contrast, five Member States (Estonia, Ireland, Latvia, Luxembourg and Finland) recorded an increase in fatalities although the number in small countries tends to fluctuate from year to year.
Bulgaria’s road death rate in 2020 was 26 per cent lower than in 2019, with the country moving from the second-highest to the third-highest rate in the European Union, according to preliminary figures published by the European Commission on April 20.
In 2020, Bulgaria was in third place behind Romania, where the road death rate decreased by 12 per cent to 85 per million inhabitants, and Latvia, where the road death rate increased by seven per cent to 74 per million.
Bulgaria’s road death rate in 2020 was 67 per million inhabitants, compared with 90 in 2019 and 105 in 2010.
Compared with 2010, Bulgaria’s road death rate in 2020 was 40 per cent lower, according to the Commission.
