Norway records its highest road death toll in a decade, with many victims under 30

The Norwegian Public Roads Administration reported twelve traffic deaths in September, a ten-year high. Half of the victims were younger than 30, and the deaths involved motorcycles, a bicycle, a pedestrian and car crashes. Officials are examining whether the incidents share common factors and how to prevent further loss of life. The remaining six victims ranged from 47 to 82 years old and died in crashes involving motorcycles, a pedestrian, an e-scooter, or a vehicle-to-vehicle collision.
