The 5th edition of the Young Capital of Road Safety will have Volvo as one of its official brands.
The 2017 Road Safety Capital Youth initiative will take place in Porto. This is a national initiative, aimed mainly at children and youth and aims to develop a program of activities on road safety.
The objective is to mobilize public opinion for Road Safety, especially young people. And with good reason. Road accidents are the leading cause of death among young people aged 18-24. The risk of death in road accidents is about 30% higher than in the rest of the population.
