    Road traffic accidents are now the eighth leading cause of death worldwide, resulting in over 1.35 million fatalities annually. Human errors such as speeding, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, failing to use seatbelts or child restraints, and distracted driving are the most common causes of traffic accidents. Conversely, risky road infrastructure, unsafe vehicles, lack of post-crash medical care, and weak traffic law enforcement also contribute to unsafe road conditions. In Metro Manila, where nearly half of all vehicle accidents in the Philippines occurred last year, car crashes and motorcycle collisions comprised the majority.

    There are 1.35 million reported fatalities due to traffic.

    Road traffic accidents are now the eighth biggest cause of death around the world, resulting for more
    deaths each year than the 1.5 million that were reported in 2000. In addition, road traffic accidents have
    been the main cause of death for children and people between the ages of 5 and 29. The most frequent
    causes of traffic accidents include human errors like speeding, driving while drunk or high on drugs like
    alcohol, not using safety devices like seatbelts and child restraints, and driving while preoccupied.
    Conversely, risk elements that have an impact on road safety include things like dangerous road
    infrastructure, dangerous vehicles, insufficient post-crash care, and poor road traffic law enforcement.

    In the Philippines' Metro Manila, where there were 48 percent of all vehicle-related accidents on the
    roads in 2021, there were car accidents. Motorcycle collisions came next, making up about 24 percent of
    all vehicle collisions in the region.
