THE CHALLENGE

#3500Lives – MAKE ROAD SAFETY A PRIORITY

Every day, more than 3,500 people are killed on the world’s roads. Young people are particularly affected as road crashes are the number one cause of death of 5 to 29 year olds.

This is an alarming trend, a plague that needs to be stopped, a human, economic and social cost which has become unacceptable. The FIA is on the front line in tackling this challenge, together with its 245 Member Organisations around the world.

Everyone has a role to play in making roads safer for all. Supported by number one outdoor advertising company JCDecaux, the #3500LIVES Campaign outlines Golden Rules that can help save your life and the lives of others.

We also encourage you to sign up to the FIA Manifesto for Global Road Safety which calls on all governments to prioritise road safety and introduce effective legislation on key risk factors on the road.

The Automobile Association (AA) again urges all motorists, passengers, and pedestrians to be responsible, and play their part in making holiday traffic safer. “Traditionally this is an extremely dangerous time to be on our roads; fatalities over...

More fuel price relief on the horizon

Fuel prices across the board are projected to decrease significantly in December, according to unaudited mid-month data from the Central Energy Fund (CEF). The Automobile Association (AA) says the decreases will add further relief to struggling consumers, especially ahead of the end of the year, and the expected increase in traffic on major holiday routes. Based on the current data from the CEF, consumers can expect a decrease of around R1.06/litre for ULP 95, R1.05/l for ULP 93, and a massive...

A reminder to get your car ready for the road before the year ends

November is the ideal month to prepare yourself and your vehicle for any end-of-year trip you may be planning. The Automobile Association (AA) advises that ensuring the vehicle is serviced, that the tyres are in good condition, and that the necessary licences – including those for trailers and caravans – are in order and security measures are in place, should be a priority to avoid any breakdowns, interruptions, or run-ins with the law. With barely a month left before most people wind down for...
