Garnel Michel Coordinator of the Haitian organization Technical and Operational Services to Stop Accidents (STOP-Accidents), informs us that for the week of August 31 to September 6, 2020, 18 accidents on the national territory (-21.7%) by report to the previous week https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-31689-icihaiti-road-repor-23-accidents-at-least-66-victims.html made at least 41 victims (-37.8% ) : 3 dead (-57%) and 38 injured (-35.5%), several of them seriously.

Morne blanc (RN3), Mussau, Delmas 75, Cange, Petit-Goâve, Bassin bleu, Mirebalais, Pierre Payen (RN1), Marchand Dessalines, Morne à cabri among others, are the main communes and zaones where these accidents have been recorded.

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

STOP-Accidents, reiterates its call for caution on our roads and urges the Government to strengthen prevention measures and to set up a systematic vehicle inspection service.
