National Road Safety Strategy aims to combat driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs
The government approved the 'Visão Zero 2030' strategy, which aims to halve road deaths and serious injuries by 2030 (using 2019 as a baseline) and reach zero by 2050. The plan includes 15 programs targeting risk factors like alcohol and drug use, speed management, and infrastructure improvements, to be implemented via two action plans covering 2027-2028 and 2029-2030.
Why it matters
This strategy sets the long-term framework for road safety in Portugal, but since implementation is tied to future action plans starting in 2027, there are no immediate changes to road rules, enforcement, or costs for drivers at this time.ObservadorRead original ↗
