📄 Abstract
Globally, road accidents cause approximately 50 million severe injuries daily (Bondar, 2021). The rate of road fatalities per 100,000 individuals stood at 11.0% in 2019, down from 14.9% in 2000, marking a 26% decrease. According to the 2018 Global Status Report on Road Safety, there were over 1.35 million fatalities on roads worldwide. Despite a decline observed in 2019, the number of fatalities in the United States remains concerning. In 2019, a total of 36,096 individuals lost their lives on American roads, reflecting a 2.0% decrease from 2018. Comparatively, the European Union recorded an average of 5.1% deaths per 100,000 individuals in 2019, indicating that the United States performed better than some European nations in terms of vehicle collision rates
