Road safety initiatives in Italy

Overview

Road safety initiatives in Italy have focused on both enforcement and education. In mid-September 2026, the Foggia Road Police Section participated in the European Roads Policing Network’s ‘Safety Days’ initiative. This campaign involved targeted traffic controls to combat speeding, mobile phone use, and seatbelt violations, alongside public awareness demonstrations using equipment like breathalyzers and speed cameras.

Following this, the municipality of Fossacesia launched a dedicated road safety campaign titled ‘Un attimo di prudenza vale una vita intera’ (A moment of prudence is worth an entire life). This program emphasizes prevention through educational meetings with students and coordinated efforts between local administrations, families, and law enforcement to address risky driving behaviors.
