29% Increase in Road Fatalities

In 2025, there was a 7.31% increase in road fatalities, with 44 deaths compared to 41 in 2024. The increase is even greater (29%) compared to 2023 (34 deaths). This increase, despite the increase in controls and the use of speed camera systems, is causing concern. Some argue that the speed camera system has not improved road safety, but may have even worsened driving behavior, encouraging careless driving.
