The Grim reaper again feasting on Namibia's roads.

Accidents statistics on Namibian roads do not look good at all. 

The Namibian Motor Vehicle Accident Fund
responsible for ensuring Medical 
assistance reach victims of MVA's reported 

this month so far 16 fatalities recorded in 92 accidents 
while almost 170 people were injured. Keep in mind 
this is only for July 2012. 
Year to date does not look good either. 
263 road fatalities in more than 1600 accidents, leaving 
more than 2760 people injured. Crazy one would think if 
-keeping in mind- we are a little more than 
2 point one million people. Our roads are some 
of the best on the continent,,,,so what are the 
problems then. ? 
Do any person once he get behind the wheel realize he or she 
is a potential murderer when behind the wheel. 
Do passengers in vehicles realize they could be the next 
in the morgue if not addressing the driver when 
driving reckless, Do motorists realize 
when driving under the influence they could end up 
in jail, in morgue or in hospital maimed 
by thinking it was "cool" to show off.
