Young Drivers and Road Safety

"Young Drivers and Road Safety” is an online campaign initiated by Industrie Mica Prahova SA and Drumul in siguranta weblog, in support of Protect Young Drivers initiative. The campaign is planned to take place between November 16th and November 22nd. A series of materials will be distributed via Drumul in siguranta weblog and its Facebook page. It is mainly aimed at young drivers, whose lack of experience represents a risk to safety on the road, and the measures implemented so far do not contribute to a reduction of this risk.

Croatian Automobile Club (HAK) presented the preventive-educational program “Safe E-Scooter Riding” to colleagues from Austria (ÖAMTC) and Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIHAMK)

The Croatian Automobile Club organized an international presentation on November 7, 2025, of the new preventive-educational e-scooter program “Safe E-Scooter Riding”. The rising use of e-scooters among younger population, which has led to more accidents, sparked international interest in HAK’s program experience.

The program responds to the growing use of e-scooters as a simple, practical, eco-friendly transport mode, addressing increased accidents and users’ lack of traffic rule awareness.

New preventive and educational program of the Croatian Automobile Club "Safe E-Scooter Riding"

In the Republic of Croatia, nearly 400 e-scooter accidents were recorded last year, causing two deaths.

In the Pasavček project, the focus lies on rule learning that contributes to road safety (correct use of child restraint systems and seatbelt use, but consequently also rules for pedestrians, passengers, etc., depending on the age of the children and the learning objectives of the teachers). The project initially started as part of the international EUCHIRES project and is thanks to its success still active today.

Children and adolescents are among the most frequently involved road users in road traffic accidents and often suffer the most severe consequences, also as passengers in vehicles. Consistently ensuring that children are properly buckled up while driving could significantly reduce this risk.
