ROAD SAFETY BARRIERS SUPPLIERS IN DOHA QATAR

Road Safety Barriers Description: With over 1.3 million people dying on highways and in vehicles all over the world, the issue of road safety is a crucial one.Accidents and other road safety mishaps are a major cause of death among all age groups, and the leading cause of death for children and young adults aged 5–29 years.

For every 1% increase in mean speed, there is a 4% increase in risk of a fatal crash.
