Road Traffic Incidents (RTIs) are a major public health concern worldwide, particularly in low-income to middle-income regions such as sub-Saharan Africa. Data from sub-Saharan Africa suggests that the public transport industry accounts for the majority of fatal crashes that contribute to the high mortality and morbidity associated with RTIs. In this viewpoint, we advocate for integrated and comprehensive evidence-based health and safety interventions to address the challenge of RTIs in the public transport industry in sub-Saharan Africa. We provide evidence on the magnitude of the problem drawing on the state of mortality and morbidity and reported challenges associated with RTIs in the minibus taxi industry in South Africa as this is the most common mode of public transport in the region.
道路交通事故（RTIs）是全球主要的公共卫生问题，在撒哈拉以南非洲等低收入到中等收入地区尤为突出。来自撒哈拉以南非洲的数据表明，公共交通行业占致命撞车事故的大多数，这些事故导致了与道路交通事故相关的高死亡率和高发病率。在本文观点中，我们主张采取综合、全面且基于证据的健康与安全干预措施，以应对撒哈拉以南非洲公共交通行业的道路交通事故挑战。我们利用死亡率和发病率状况以及南非小型巴士出租车行业报告的与道路交通事故相关的挑战，提供了有关该问题严重程度的证据，因为这是该地区最常见的公共交通方式。
