flag Road deaths in Australia rise due to speeding, distraction, and more driving, despite known safety solutions.

flag Road fatalities in Australia continue to rise despite annual commemorations and known safety measures, with experts attributing the trend to speeding, distraction, and population growth. flag While fatality rates have declined over time, increased vehicle use makes further reductions unlikely without eliminating all new deaths. flag Authorities emphasize that speed is a factor but not the only cause, and state-level variations suggest infrastructure and geography play roles. flag Experts like Raphael Grzebieta stress that proven solutions—better design, stricter enforcement, improved driver training, and psychological assessments—are underused due to political inaction. flag Calls grow for data-driven policies prioritizing education and safety over punitive measures, with concerns about surveillance overshadowing genuine improvement.
