Where Are the Security Forces Amid Violations
The article discusses the escalating traffic accident rates in Lebanon in recent years, with the numbers of fatalities and injuries reaching catastrophic levels. The death toll has reached about 500 people annually, while the number of injured individuals continues to rise steadily—from 2,366 in 2022 to over 3,550 in 2025. The increase in accidents is attributed to several factors, including excessive speeding, phone use while driving, reckless and careless driving, and dangerous behaviors such as lane violations and failure to adhere to traffic laws. Although efforts by internal security forces to enforce the law exist, weak measures and low penalties contribute to the ongoing problem. Additionally, infrastructural barriers—such as poor road conditions and lack of essential safety measures—are worsening the situation. The article calls for intensified monitoring, stricter security measures, and improved infrastructure to help reduce traffic-related fatalities in Lebanon.
