Tsogo Road Safety Programme is a 4-month intervention by Abuti Rams Foundation to address the minimal road safety knowledge and explore the best practices amongst youth which increases their vulnerability towards road fatalities but also expose them to the opportunities within the road transport sector.
The programme from its inception was informed by the Decade of Action 2030 and designed in-line with the five pillars of road safety governing the goals thereof.

Although the increasing numbers of deaths due to crashes of young people, however there are various interventions around road safety in South Africa that have been implemented by both public and private sector to mitigate the epidemic.
