00:47compared to only 331 accidents in 2023.

00:50That's why we call this road traffic injuries

00:53or road crashes, we don't want to call it an accident.

00:57Because an accident means that it cannot be avoided.

01:41356 or 72% of the total number of cases are riders or motorcyclists

01:48where only 10 of them wore helmets.

01:516 out of 496 died and 4 of them were motorcyclists.

01:56DOH also released a data that 83% of road traffic injuries are those who drank alcohol.

02:02DOH reminds that the new year is safe and if someone will go and go out,

02:07make sure that the driver and the vehicle are in good condition.

02:12Do not drink alcohol and rest for 6 to 8 hours so that we will not get sleepy on the road.

02:21And when we go out, our vehicles should be in a good condition

02:26so that this is not what is often said that there is no penalty or any other reasons.
