Traffic Police chief decries rising road deaths

Nuwabiine also stated that the cost to lives, the strain on health systems, and the economic impact calls for the urgent need to re-evaluate and strengthen road safety efforts.

In his foreword to the 2023 Annual Traffic Performance Report that was released on Friday (May 18), Niwabiine noted that the burden of road traffic deaths is largely borne by pedestrians, passengers on boda bodas, and the riders themselves. (New Vision/Files)
