Data shows that the 2025/26 festive season recorded the lowest number of crashes in five years, with the same number of fatalities as the 2023/24 season, with Limpopo Province as one of the top five provinces who recorded reduction in fatalities as compared to the previous year.
The 365-day Road Safety Campaign, led by the National Department of Transport and Provincial Departments , is crucial as it not only focuses on the festive season but also on road safety year-round.
The 2025/26 campaign emphasizes individual responsibility with the theme "It Starts With Me," encouraging conscious efforts to make roads safer every day. The dedication our Law enforcement teams from National Traffic Police, Provincial Traffic Police and Municipal Traffic Police contributed immensely to this achievement. One live lost is too many still and we remain committed to #ZeroDeathsGoal on our roads.
