Motorcycle Insurance Crisis Challenges
During the period from the beginning of January 2026 until mid-July, Benzert province witnessed 90 traffic accidents resulting in 34 fatalities and 119 injuries. Light vehicles accounted for 56.62% of these accidents, followed by motorcycles at 50.54%. Motorcycle owners face challenges related to insurance coverage, as comprehensive insurance premiums have doubled and structural protection is often absent, exposing drivers—especially reckless ones and those not wearing helmets—to the risk of serious injuries. The government has introduced new measures, including requiring motorcycle insurance before January 1, 2025, and expanding the system to cover vehicles owned before that date. A draft law is being prepared to regulate registration and technical inspections to ensure safe driving. Additionally, regional road safety committees are conducting campaigns to encourage licensing and seize motorcycles that lack proper documents, aiming to reduce accidents and protect rights.
