There were four people killed in traffic accidents in Iceland in 2014, the lowest number since the government began keeping records in 1966, reports Mbl.is. This is attributed to years of work by awareness groups and stricter government regulations.
“What we want is a year without any fatalities. Four deaths are four too many,” said Ágúst Mogensen, with the Icelandic Transportation Safety Board.
Six people were killed in traffic accidents in 1968, when Iceland changed to right side driving. The highest number of people killed in car accidents was in 1977 when 37 people died.
