The Haitian organization Technical and Operational Services to Stop Accidents (STOP-Accidents), informs us that for the week of February 22 to 28, 2021, 26 accidents on the national territory (+13.0% compared to the previous week) https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-33086-icihaiti-road-bulletin-23-accidents-at-least-51-victims.html made at least 85 victims (-66.6%): 6 deaths including an 11-year-old girl (+ 200%) and 79 injured (+ 64%), several of them seriously.

Gonaïves, airport road, rue Bénito (Port-de-Paix), morne blanc (RN3), Vivy Mitchell, Catalpa (Delmas 75), Mirebalais, Thor (Carrefour), Canapé-Vert, route 9, Petit-Goâve , are the main communes and zones where these accidents were 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 financial 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. In addition, the Organization invites road users to maintain responsible behavior in order to reduce the risk of accidents.
