Saudi Arabia sees 60% drop in traffic deaths
Saudi Arabia recorded a decrease of over 60% in traffic accident fatality rates between 2016 and 2025. This progress resulted from the development of legislation, expanded use of technology, improvement of infrastructure, and increased efficiency in emergency response. In 2025, most accidents—92.8%—were caused by moving vehicle collisions, primarily due to not maintaining a safe distance and sudden lane deviations. The economic costs resulting from accidents decreased by 2.2 billion riyals between 2024 and 2025, and the total cumulative savings from 2016 to 2025 amounted to approximately 83.6 billion riyals.
