The Czech Transport Ministry has revealed that there were 545 road deaths in the country in 2016, an increase of 31 from the previous year. The number of serious injuries from road crashes has also increased. Of further concern is that this road death statistic is far more than the much lower target figure for fatality reduction the country had been aiming for.
The National Traffic Safety Strategy for 2011-2020 was to bring annual road deaths down to 464/year, a reduction of 60% from the actual figure at the start of the time period.
