Road Traffic Safety Improving Due to Shift in Mindset, Authorities Say

Ljubljana, 8 January - Last year was the most successful year in terms of traffic safety in Slovenia, with the number of accidents dropping by 16% compared to 2010, the national Traffic Safety Agency said on Thursday. The police attribute the result to stricter supervision, a number of preventive campaigns as well as a "shift in the drivers' mindset".
