Norway recorded 108 road fatalities in 2019, the same number as in 2018. With a mortality rate of 2 per 100 000 persons, Norway is the best performing country amongst IRTAD members for this indicator. The National Road Safety Action Plan 2018-21 lists 13 priority areas and 136 action measures designed to reduce the number of road crash fatalities and serious injuries to fewer than 500 by 2024. On the way towards Vision Zero, the long-term target is to reach fewer than 350 by 2030. This target is achievable if planned measures are implemented to the greatest possible extent.
