In the first place, the Red Cross gives us the keys that we all know but that, many times, we do not have in mind when taking the car. Things as basic as wearing a seatbelt, driving at a moderate speed, staying attentive to the road and not driving after drinking alcohol, can mean that traffic accident victims are reduced. It should be borne in mind that, today, it is estimated that in 2020 the tragedies produced by traffic will be the 3rd cause of death in the world and infractions like this are the most frequent causes of these accidents.

Pedestrians, drivers, institutions, organizations ... we all have a responsibility to reduce the unacceptable number of fatalities due to traffic. It is also our duty to learn to provide first aid in order to react in time in case of an accident and to help the victims until the rescue teams arrive. This fact can be vital in many cases.
