Morocco Road Safety Crisis: 19 Dead, Over 2,000 Injured in Week-Long Surge of Traffic Accidents

This high number of road accidents is mainly due to driver inattention and non-compliance with the highway code. With regard to control operations and the repression of offenses, the security services recorded 50,137 fines and drew up 12,912 reports that were submitted to the public prosecutor’s office.

Similarly, 37,225 transaction fines were collected and the sums received amounted to 7,545,625 dirhams, noted the DGSN. And that’s not all. 4,575 vehicles were impounded, 8,096 documents seized and 241 vehicles taken off the road.
