As a result of the heavy traffic measures taken by the Ministry of Interior police and gendarmerie units due to Ramadan Feast this year and the "Have Your Holiday With Belt" campaign, there was a decrease in fatal traffic accidents compared to previous years.

When the Eid al-Fitr holidays, which lasted 10 days in the last 5 years, were compared, this year, the number of accidents decreased by 37 percent, the number of fatal accidents by 52 percent, the number of fatalities due to accidents by 58 percent, and the number of injuries decreased by 44 percent.

During the 5-day Eid al-Fitr holiday, 1707 traffic accidents occurred this year. 26 people lost their lives in these accidents.

Since today is the last day of the holiday, the return traffic has started.

For safety traffic, we ask our citizens to comply with the legal speed limit and not to use mobile phones while driving. “Have Your Feast With Belt”
