Today, road traffic accidents are more than just numbers lagging behind statistical indicators; they are a serious social problem directly impacting everyday life. The increasing number of vehicles, poor driving habits, and inadequate infrastructure contribute to the rising number of accidents.
According to statistics, road traffic accidents are the leading cause of death, especially among young people aged 5 to 29. According to statistics, in 2024, 9,364 road accidents occurred in our country, resulting in 2,203 deaths and 8,901 injuries. This figure once again confirms the need to study road safety from the perspective of young people.
This article is based on the results of a youth survey, data from the World Health Organization (WHO), and the Statistical Committee of Uzbekistan. A sociological survey conducted among young people by the Research Institute of Criminology examined the main causes of road accidents, the behavior of drivers and pedestrians, opinions on infrastructure, and youth suggestions for prevention.
