Isilda Gomes, the civil governor of Faro, said: “Road accidents are a serious problem and all in the society need to be involved in finding an effective response.” The seriousness of the situation was reiterated by the civil governor who describes road accidents as the “number one problem that needs to be solved in the Algarve” and although many improvements have been made, more needs to be done.
So, as summer approaches and the roads get busier please be careful out there, and a little bit of consideration for others on the road never goes amiss. It is reassuring to see that there is an ongoing proposal to reduce road deaths and accidents, now all we need is some strong publicity to reinforce this.
