A campaign calling for caution when déconfinement had been launched in early may to avoid a rise in deaths on the road.
Three weeks after the déconfinement and the return of the French on the roads, road Safety is concerned about this Saturday, “the first alarming figures”, with a rise in fatalities and a leap of 15% of the large excess of speed.
A campaign calling for caution when déconfinement was launched in the beginning of may. “Alas, our fears appeared to be based since the first figures coming from the field are quite alarming in terms of mortality,” said David Julliard, assistant to the interministerial delegate for road Safety, in an interview with the newspaper Le Parisien. During the bridge of the Ascension, “there has been a lot of fatal accidents and the number of deaths has been higher than last year at the same time,” he reports.

“Between 11 and 27 may, we found 2421 large excess of speed, in excess of 50 km/h above the limitations”, he explains. “This is 321 more than in 2019 on the same period, an increase of nearly 15 %, which is huge.”
