127: this is the number of pedestrians who have lost their lives on Italian roads from the beginning of the year to today. And it's a pretty large number, which as always it spares no one: 89 males and 38 females, of all these 76 were over 65 years old. These figures were released by Asaps, which says it is concerned about one factor in particular: many of the investments took place on the crosswalkswhere failure to give way to pedestrians leads to the deduction of 8 points from the driving licence.
Massacre of pedestrians in Italy
“Other pedestrians were even hit while walking calmly on the pavement. New case of road hackingwith the driver fleeing to Inverigo in the Como area, where an 82-year-old died – says the association, which recalls – With the mini-suspension of license approved in the Chamber of Deputies in the first reading last week, the immediate withdrawal of the driving license for 7 days for those with less than 20 points on their license or for 15 days if with less than 10 points”.
Nightmare Lombardy
Returning to the report of the victims, the Lombardy wears the black shirt: 18 pedestrians have lost their lives in the Milan region since the beginning of the year, followed by Lazio and Emilia-Romagna with 14 victims and Sicily and Campania with 12 deaths. At the moment in April there are already 19 pedestrians killed, a figure that exceeds that recorded in the same month of 2023.
Partial data
We remember as always that the report it does not take into account the seriously injured who very often will lose their lives in hospitals even months after “Istat only counts deaths in the first thirty days after the accident”.
