Costs of traffic accidents counteract efforts to grow the country

According to Mehr correspondent Mohsen Haji Mirzaei, the head of the President's Office, on the sidelines of the Nowruz Headquarters and Summary of the Red Crescent Operations and Services, told reporters: More than 5 million people in the Red Crescent, medical, pharmaceutical, support, support, health and education networks are highly rescued.

He added: “It is a divine success that the collections have the opportunity to serve the people, reduce the suffering of the people, and dedicate their time to peace and comfort.” To make people more comfortable, travel easier, and make the holidays more appropriate.

“Fortunately, the Red Crescent efforts are valuable during this time and we are seeing a reduction in accidents,” he said. On the other hand, we are seeing increased and safer trips. The country has a lot of domestic and foreign capacities to invest. In the region of countries in the region, there may be less of so much investment. We are one of the richest countries in the world in terms of mines and we have very wide mines throughout Iran. In the field of oil, gas and energy, we have large reserves that can invest heavily. We are also geographically in place where we can activate the north, east and west corridor, which is a very good opportunity in terms of transit and can connect different countries.

Referring to Iran's geographical location, he said: “To facilitate Iran's travels, it can be a good opportunity compared to many other countries.” The investment capacity in the aviation industry, marine, rail and road industry is a great opportunity. We have more than 5 kilometers of the North and South Sea coasts, with Makran coasts accessing open waters. Very large ports can be built there. These are all areas of investment and there are many enthusiasts. We hope that we will be able to expand this in the year called investment for production.

Haji Mirzaei also said: Driving accidents are one of the most important issues in the country. Between 2 and 5 percent of GDP growth is spent on the consequences of traffic accidents. That is, the disabilities, the death, the economic impacts, the problems it causes in the family, the costs it imposes on the health sector and insurance are very heavy. We are all trying to grow by 5 %. If accidents reduce this growth, our efforts will actually neutralize.

He added: “There are definitely a number of factors involved in traffic accidents that require some of our fleet reconstruction.” Our cars and roads should be more appropriate. On the other hand, our drivers need to drive more cautiously. Some of these measures take time. Finally, the fleet reconstruction requires more serious policy making. Currently, road officials are trying to identify and eliminate the dangers. The effective and bold presence of the police can also be decisive. Even at times of traffic lights or police lights or even a police car replica can affect drivers' accidents and caution.

He also pointed to the cultivation of this field and said: “Some of our social capacities are about how people learn from childhood how to drive others, not driving risky and cautiously.” We are not supposed to reach a point in a hurry. Travel itself is an important part of the holidays that should be enjoyed in the light of calm and caution. Hopefully in the remaining two days, dear drivers will be cautious.
