AVSF raises alarm over surge in road crashes as nearly 90 victims recorded in one week
The Accident Victims Support Foundation (AVSF) raised concerns over an increase in road traffic crashes across Ghana, revealing that nearly 90 people have been affected by road accidents within the past week. AVSF stated, "These figures and incidents serve as painful reminders that road crashes can affect anyone, regardless of age, profession, or social status."
The Foundation noted recent incidents including the Bukom crash, the fatal military vehicle accident at Nkenkensu, and a collision involving a school bus carrying about 40 to 45 children at Shiashie. AVSF expressed concern that the growing number of crashes reflects persistent challenges with road safety in Ghana. The increasing number of victims has placed additional pressure on AVSF's limited resources. AVSF called on the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA) to intensify public education on road safety and strengthen enforcement of existing regulations.
