Samenvatting
Finland recorded 209 deaths in 2019, which represents a 12.6% decrease on 2018. In 2019, Finland had a mortality rate of 3.8 traffic fatalities per 100 000 population in 2019. In November 2017, the Finnish Government submitted the draft of a new Road Traffic Act to parliament. The legislation aims to improve the smooth operation and safety of transport. Furthermore, it will create preconditions for the digitalisation and safe automation of traffic while making progress on deregulation. (Author/publisher)
