The Council of Ministers approved the road safety report for 2025. According to the document, the number of road fatalities in Bulgaria is 28% lower compared to 2014. However, road safety remains a serious public issue in the country.
The report states that the main causes of road accidents are excessive speed, driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, as well as driver inattention. Pedestrians and motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users. Experts emphasise that better maintenance of road infrastructure is also necessary.
The report also outlines measures that the authorities plan to implement in order to reduce the number of crashes and their serious consequences. These include stronger road control, educational campaigns for drivers, and improved traffic conditions in populated areas.
