A Study into the Role of Local Communities in Preventing Traffic Accidents

Abstract

This study examines the involvement of local communities in addressing traffic accident issues, based on the traffic accident statistics provided by the National Police Agency. Both the frequency of traffic accidents and the resulting injuries have shown a declining trend. Nevertheless, a challenge persists in reducing accidents influenced by contemporary factors, including those involving elderly individuals, young people, and bicycle-related incidents. Given the significant influence and role that local communities are believed to play in resolving this issue, we explore the relationship between them.
