By 2023, the number of drunken road accidents in Moscow will be reduced by a quarter

The capital’s traffic police reported a drop in the number of accidents in the city in the first four months of 2023. Portal “AvtoVzglyad” got acquainted with the police statistics.

During this period, the number of crashes involving drunk drivers decreased by 24.5%. There were 83 of such crashes. The number of fatalities and injuries in these road crashes fell by 60% (8 people) and 20.7% (115 people), respectively.

In total, 2279 accidents occurred in Moscow in January and April. The police say that this is 1.6% less than in the same period in 2022. But we will not rejoice at such a figure, since such scales of the “trap” fit within the limits of statistical error. The total number of deaths and injuries in accidents on Moscow’s roads and streets has fallen by 5.3% (89 people) and 4% (2550 people) respectively over the past four months.

The Moscow traffic police also noted a decrease in the number of pedestrian accidents. During the reporting period, they happened 3.6% less than a year earlier – 775 cases.
