Brazilian municipalities and regional governments continue to implement various urban mobility and traffic safety initiatives, with recent efforts intensifying during National Traffic Week. In Pernambuco, data indicates that human behavior accounts for up to 97% of accidents on certain coastal highways, underscoring the need for speed control and driver attention. In Salvador, Transalvador organized a ‘Pit Stop’ event in Piatã, providing vehicle safety checklists, lectures, and helmet giveaways. In Manaus, the IMMU conducted an educational blitz for motorcyclists in the Industrial District to promote defensive driving and protective equipment. Safety measures have also expanded to protect specific groups, such as the ‘Romaria Segura 2026’ initiative along the Via Dutra highway, which advises drivers to reduce speed and remain vigilant near pilgrims walking toward the National Sanctuary of Aparecida.
