About: The claim that ‘an average 2 000 people die every year on the country’s roads’ has been rated true, but only when using the country’s own data and definitions. A major concern is that the official statistics relate only to crash scene deaths count and rarely take into account victims who die on the way and in hospital or after discharge, for which World Health Organization estimations aim to also account. The WHO estimation indicates that crash fatalities are close to three times the rate reported by the country. While Zimbabwe has 2023 figures, WHO figures for the period after 2020 are not yet available.
