ROAD SAFETY:  3 500 people die on the road every day (over 3 000 annually in Uganda alone)  Over 90% of the deaths on the roads occur in low- income and middle-income countries  Road traffic injuries are predicted to become the fifth leading cause of death by 2030, resulting in 2.4 million deaths a year.  “Vulnerable road users“ such as pedestrians or cyclists account for around 46% of global road traffic deaths. This proportion is greater in low- income countries than in high-income countries  One of the highest road traffic injury fatality rate is in Africa (32,2 per 100 000 population, the global rate being 18,8 in 2009)  Responding to this global epidemic, the U.N. have declared the U.N.
