|May 06, 2025
The Western Cape Government has reported a slight drop in road-related fatalities over the Easter weekend, with 22 lives lost between Thursday 17 and Monday 21 April, down from 26 during the same period last year.
While the decline is widely welcomed, officials continue to emphasise the importance of responsible road behaviour.
The provincial government's mobility and health departments deployed teams across the region during the peak-travel period to enforce safety measures and provide emergency assistance.
According to official data, 22 fatal crashes occurred over the Easter weekend, resulting in the deaths.
