The chart illustrates the number of road traffic victims per million inhabitants across various EU countries in 2018. Notably, Ireland, Denmark, and Sweden report the lowest figures, with 29, 30, and 32 victims per million, respectively. These numbers are significantly below the EU average of 53, indicating effective road safety measures in these countries. On the other hand, Romania, Bulgaria, and Croatia exhibit alarmingly high rates, with Romania reaching 96 victims per million. This stark contrast highlights the disparity in road safety standards and enforcement across the EU. The data suggests a need for targeted interventions in countries with higher victim rates to align them with the EU average. The variation in road traffic victim rates may be influenced by factors such as infrastructure quality, traffic regulations, and public awareness campaigns. The chart serves as a crucial tool for policymakers to identify areas requiring improvement and to implement strategies that enhance road safety across the EU.
