Traffic and road rules are often perceived as technical necessities, disconnected from philosophical discourse. While environmental concerns of pollution are acknowledged, road safety presents a significant danger, with 1.3 million global deaths from traffic accidents annually. This issue disproportionately affects younger populations and showcases deep inequalities in risk distribution. The dominance of motor vehicles in road infrastructure exacerbates these dangers, necessitating a more thoughtful consideration of road spaces not just as logistical frameworks, but as areas requiring social justice and remedial action.
Road traffic regulation is often overlooked by the general population, viewed as a technical matter, rather than a substantial topic for moral and philosophical discussion.
Approximately 1.3 million people die annually from road traffic accidents, marking it as the leading cause of death for those aged 5 to 29.
The contemporary road design poses significant dangers dominated by motor vehicles, contributing to both fatal accidents and non-fatal injuries globally.
There exists an urgent need to address the deep inequalities in risk distribution concerning road traffic accidents and the environmental impacts of vehicle overuse.
