In 2023, the number of road fatalities outside built-up areas in Italy stood at approximately 1.5 thousand persons. Forecasts for the period from 2024 to 2028 indicate a consistent decrease in road fatalities, with values dropping from 1.48 thousand in 2024 to 1.4 thousand by 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of 1.35% between 2024 and 2025, and a compounding annual growth rate (CAGR) of -1.39% over the five-year forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include advancements in road safety technologies and stricter enforcement of traffic regulations, which may further contribute to the reduction in road fatalities. Additionally, increasing public awareness and education on road safety could play a significant role in maintaining this downward trend.
