The road safety campaign 'Travel without haste' is part of
the 2023 National Inspection Plan and will run from 31 January until February 6.
In a joint statement, ANSR, PSP, and GNR state that the
campaign aims to "alert drivers to the risks of driving at excessive
speed" since it is one of the main causes of accidents on the roads and
is responsible for more than 60% of registered infractions.
ANSR, PSP, and GNR underline that, in a collision, the
probability of fatalities increases depending on the speed at which vehicles
travel.
The "Travel without haste" campaign will integrate
ANSR awareness actions across the country and inspection operations carried out
by the GNR and PSP that will take place "with a special focus on roads with
high road traffic and in accordance with the National Plan of Inspection 2023,
in order to contribute to reducing the risk of accidents and the adoption of
safer behaviour by drivers with regard to driving at excessive speed".
