In February down the number of the pedestrians died as a result of an investment. According to the report of the Observatory of the Association of supporters and friends of traffic police, from 1 to 29 February, on the basis of accidents recorded by the police and by local Police, have died on our roads 23 were pedestrians, almost one-half compared to the data of February 2018 (latest data from Aci-Istat) when the deaths were 46.
The victim youngest was a twenty-year-old invested with Milan by a tram, while the elder turned out to be a 93enne to Carraie Ravenna in the Emilia-Romagna region and, on the whole, of the 23 pedestrians died 11 are people over 65, confirming that older people are the ones most at risk.
data were collected between the representatives of Asaps on national territory and by the mass-media, and should be considered to be partial (even if approximate), as the figures that will be formalized by Aci-Istat, taking into account also the deaths, which occurred within thirty days of the accident.
In February were 32 cases of investment of pedestrians admitted to hospital in code red in the prognosis is reserved, at Italian hospitals.
According to the Asaps, the February figure 2020 has definitely recorded the current situation of the epidemic by “coronavirus”, which resulted in a reduction of trips and travel for millions of people.
In the decline in the number of the dead in the “slaughter of the Saturday evening”, and always according to the Observatory of the Asaps in the two weekend nights, February 29 and march 1, you are registered “only” 3 accidents with one dead and 7 injured in 16 hours to a high mortality rate (from 22 of the Friday, 6 on Saturday and from 22 of Saturday, 6 on Sunday).
These data the more positive are likely to also be a result of the closure of the premises already on Saturday night with a physiological reduction in the nightlife.
Passing the surveys on the conditions of the driver of the vehicle that has invested in the 23 pedestrians then deceased, from the report of the Asaps shows that no one was in a state of alcoholic intoxication (compared to 11 deaths in January for the airbag in a state of alcoholic intoxication), only one was under the influence of drugs (compared to 2 in the previous month, in three cases, the investor is said to have escaped after investment (compared to the 6 of January), while in one case the investor was a minor.
In the ranking of the regions, the highest number of pedestrians who died was recorded in Tuscany (4) as in January), followed by Piedmont, Lombardy, Abruzzo and Lazio (3), Calabria (2), and Emilia Romagna, Sicily, Sardinia, Campania and Veneto, with a death.
“so the lower the number of deaths among pedestrians is good news, although due to the difficult situation that many regions are experiencing as a result of “coronavirus,” said Giordano Biserni, president of Asaps – We are also aware that the data disseminated by all the media with the figures of January have definitely had to think many road users, who want to change their driving behaviour.
From the first of January to the 29th February have been a total of 69 pedestrians dead, a pawn in the day never returned home.
today we are not able to say how many deaths have been caused by distraction from mobile, another dangerous virus road”.
the reform of The Code of the Road was again service packs for march from the Room. Serves immediately for the immediate suspension of the license on the first violation, pursuant to the firm in Parliament.
And I need the uniforms on the roads, hoping that this “success” February is not only contingent and a result of a serious problem and serious as the coronavirus”. (m.r.)
