Guinea-Bissau Road Safety Summary from Global Status Report 2023

Population and Basic Data

• Population: Approximately 2,060,721
• Income group: Low income
• WHO Region: African Region
• Report participation years: 2009, 2013, 2015, 2018, 2023

Road Traffic Burden and User Behaviour

• Reported fatalities (2021): 100
• WHO estimate (2021): 629 deaths (95% CI 539-718)
• Rate per 100,000 population (2021): 30.5
• Speed limits: Maximum urban 50 km/h, rural 80 km/h, motorway 100 km/h; national law sets limits
• Drink driving: National law prohibits alcohol consumption; BAC limit 0.05 g/dl; no random breath testing
• Driving after drinking: National target to reduce by 2030; no specific enforcement
• Seat belts: Mandatory for drivers and front/rear occupants (not all); national law exists; wearing rate unknown

Road Safety Infrastructure

• Local authorities can modify speed limits; urban limits set at 50 km/h
• Targets to reduce speeding: National 2030 goal
• Speed reduction measures: Present; all road-user safety standards aligned with UN conventions
• No specific data on infrastructure upgrades or technical assessments

Vehicle Safety

• Helmets: National law for motorcycle riders; helmet wearing rate unknown; requirement to fasten helmets enforced
• Seat-belt systems: Mandatory for all road types; wearing rate unknown; national 2030 target to increase use
• Mobile phone distraction: Legislation prohibits use while driving (hand-held banned); no enforcement targets
• Other regulations: No testing in fatal crashes; no periodic inspections; standards for anti-lock braking systems (ABS) and child restraints enforced based on laws; no data on vehicle upgrades or imports

Post-Crash Response

• Emergency care: Partial coverage for access; no law for free rehabilitative or psychological services
• Professional emergency care availability: National target by 2030 for reduced response time
• No third-party liability insurance law for vehicles; no data on drug or alcohol-related crashes beyond legislation

Institutional Framework and Targets

• National road safety strategy: Not present; lead agency exists
• Pre-hospital and emergency services: Agencies coordinate; seat-belt enforcement includes front and rear occupants
• Reduction targets: National 2030 goals for decreased seat-belt and child-restraint use, speeding, and other behaviors
• Data systems: Speeding violations and related injuries/fatalities collected; civil registration system group 4 (data not fully available); no funding for strategy implementation

Key Observations

• Moderate to strong legislation in areas like speed limits, drink driving, and seat belts.
• Areas with weaknesses: Higher blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limits, lack of data on non-fatal incidents, and insufficient enforcement mechanisms.
• Opportunities: Increase helmet use, improve emergency care access, and enhance data collection to support targets.
