Africa has the fewest roads, relative to its size, of any region, yet suffers the highest proportion of vehicle fatalities, with 620 people dying every day. As everywhere, speed, alcohol and not wearing a seat belt or helmet are among the main causes of death and injury, say experts. But in Africa, these problems are compounded by inadequate infrastructure, outdated vehicles, minimal prosecutions and a shortage of emergency services.
