New ACI-ISTAT data shows Italian road deaths fell below 3,000 in 2025 for the first time since 2021, down 5.3% year on year. Crashes and injuries, however, both rose. Two-wheeler fatalities stayed high at 802, up 14.9% on 2019, and a sharp rise in deaths involving e-bikes and e-scooters is also causing concern.

What the numbers show is that while overall deaths fell below 3,000 for the first time since 2021, two-wheeler fatalities rose to 802, up 14.9% on 2019. That is a harsh reality. The pattern of safety measures failing to keep up precisely where markets and traffic volumes are growing is, I think, a shared problem in Asia too. The sharp rise in e-scooter deaths is a sign we cannot overlook either.
