November 19 is National Day of Remembrance for road crash victims.

Today, we honour and remember those who have lost their lives or been injured in preventable road crashes, and the loved ones whose lives have been forever changed. In B.C. from 2019 to 2023, there was an average of 288 fatal victims per year involved in motor vehicle crashes. Speeding, impairment, and distracted driving remain the leading causes.

Let’s work together to keep our roads safe!
