Dark July statistics: 35 people die on Serbian roads

In light of this latest incident, the Ministry of Internal Affairs issued a dramatic warning to the public, drawing attention to the alarming situations on the roads throughout Serbia.

Despite intensive traffic controls and a large number of implemented preventive activities, as many as 35 people have been killed in traffic accidents since the beginning of July. Of particular concern is the fact that as many as 11 people under the age of 30 are among the victims.

MUP: Speeding ​​is still number one killer

The MUP once again appealed on all participants in traffic to consistently follow traffic regulations, especially regarding speed limits. They stress that unadjusted speed is the most common cause of traffic accidents that result in deaths and serious injuries.

Members of the traffic police say that they will continue with increased control measures and consistent use of their legal powers against all perpetrators of the most serious violations, with the aim of improving safety and protecting human lives.
