In the Netherlands the number of fatalities is relatively low. Very low even, and organisations such as the Dutch road safety continue to advocate for measures to ensure that the number of deaths per year further reduce. But what about the rest?

If we just look beyond our inward-looking country, shows an analysis of the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting that the number of road deaths in the coming years, global hard will rise. The global death toll in traffic is currently at 1.24 million, something that in 2030 will have risen to 3.6 million. Cru factoid: there are more victims than HIV/AIDS requirements.

On this card is to see how many victims per 100,000 inhabitants to fall by country, broken down in percentages by which the used means of transport is indicated. In the netherlands the 3.9 not much worse than the number 1 (Sweden) with 3 per 100,000 inhabitants per year. Dashcamenië is over 18.6 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants, in the US this was 11.4. Venezuela (37,2 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants) and Thailand (38,1) dangle at the bottom.
