A recent analysis of road traffic accidents in the Jalal-Abad region showed that 87% of accidents occur due to the drivers themselves.

As Manas Sydygaliev, head of the Road Safety Department (RSD) of the regional Internal Affairs Directorate, explained, vehicles of the brands "Hyundai" and "Kia" most often become participants in incidents on the roads.

According to Sydygaliev, the condition of drivers plays a key role in accident rates. "In our region, there are 380 kilometers of the Bishkek—Osh highway. Drivers from Batken and Bishkek, when entering the roads of our region, are often in a state of significant fatigue. This leads to a decrease in concentration and, consequently, to tragedies. Statistics confirm: 87% of traffic accidents occur precisely due to the drivers," he noted.

The road situation in the region remains complicated. According to official data, last year the region recorded:

- 742 road traffic accidents;

- 177 fatalities;

- 1267 people with injuries of varying severity.

Currently, RSD employees are actively engaged in preventive work and conducting explanatory activities with drivers to reduce the number of accidents and decrease the number of casualties on the roads.
