Garnel Michel Coordinator of the Haitian organization Technical and Operational Services to Stop Accidents (STOP-Accidents), informs us that from April 6 to 12, 2020, 31 road accidents on the national territory (+ 29.1% compared to the week previous https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-30465-icihaiti-road-safety-24-accidents-at-least-33-victims.html ) made at least 71 victims (+ 215%): 8 dead (+ 400%) and 63 31 injured (+ 203%) including several seriously.

Jacmel, Morne-à-cabri, Fond-des-nègres, Carrefour Marassa, Delmas 33, Saint-Louis du Nord, Petit-Goâve, Airport road and Route 9 among others, are the main municipalities and areas where these accidents have been saved.

Recall that this weekly assessment was carried out in partnership with the National Ambulance Center (CAN) and the Haitian Red Cross. However, due to a lack of STOP-Accident means, it is unable to monitor the state of health of the injured, some of whom die from their injuries and are not counted.

STOP-Accidents, reiterates its call for caution on our roads while continuing to ask the authorities concerned to take measures to reduce the risk of accidents on public roads and better behavior of drivers on the roads.
