A fatal collision in Belgrade involving an 83-year-old driver resulted in one death and five injuries, causing a chain reaction that damaged several parked vehicles. Local police and prosecutors have launched an investigation into the incident. Following such incidents, the Serbian Traffic Police Administration issued a warning regarding a rise in road accidents. Data from the first ten months of the year indicates that 95 pedestrians have died, which is an increase of ten compared to the previous year. Authorities noted that one in seven pedestrian fatalities occurred on marked crossings and identified November as a high-risk month due to weather conditions and reduced daylight. The Serbian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MUP) has issued an urgent appeal for caution due to deteriorating weather. Authorities warn that November is statistically the most dangerous month for pedestrians because of shorter daylight hours, frequent fog, rain, and slippery road surfaces. Drivers are advised to reduce speed, particularly in residential areas, and to ensure proper vehicle maintenance, such as checking windshield wipers and tires. Pedestrians are urged to wear bright or retroreflective clothing to improve visibility during night and early morning hours.
