9WHO Fact Sheet on Road Traffic InjuriesKey Facts (Updated Oct 2015)• About 1.25 million people die each year from road traffic crashes.• Road traffic injuries the leading cause of death among young

people, aged 15–29 years.• 90% of the world's fatalities in low- and middle-income countries

& these countries have half world's vehicles!• Half of those dying on the world’s roads are “vulnerable road

users”: pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists.• Without action, road traffic crashes are predicted to rise to

become the 7th leading cause of death by 2030.• The newly adopted 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development’s

sets an ambitious road safety target of halving the global number of deaths and injuries from road traffic crashes by 2020.
