The Turkish parliament unfortunately is full with people who think law and punishment has no important role in preventing crime.
A few years ago (maybe five years ago) they released almost all prisoners including those who were charged for murder, rape, robbery, etc. This unreasonableness is really so shocking for reasonable people while it is normal for some folks.
The law system is so nonsense nobody anymore cares about it. If you are driving a bus and were cought drunk there wont be any serious charge that prevents you from doing the same thing again after a while.
If somebody dies in a traffic accident and you were responsible for the accident there will be no serious charge as it was an accident.
If you want to kill somebody you could deliberately do this by hitting the person with your car as this again is only a traffic accident. In many countries they would investigate this as a murder case. Maybe they might have changed the law recently according the EU negotiations but I dont think so.
The lack of the punisment is not helping to reduce the number of accidents and deads. In one celander year I think in Turkey we lose more people than the total of Europe. I havent checked the istatistic but Turkia might be on number on people killed in traffic accidents.
Indeed ıt would be interesting to see the istatistics for the last few years. Does anybody know how many people die in traffic accidents in Turkia in a typical year?
One serious issue that increases the deads is tha public transportation issue. We lack trains. The railway is so increadibly unreliable and so old and so slow, very few people are using it to travel from one city to another. Buses are the main transport system for public transport between cities. Of course the railway being uncomfortable and slow and painful forces many folks to travel with their own cars as well which increases traffic seriously. Again inside cities we dont have a developed tube system and the importance of public transport doesnt seem to catch much attention tough so many deadly accident.
Some uncivilisied people who are in charge to change things unfortunately have not enough respect to law, regulations and these kind things.
A huge percentage of the accidents resulting with dead are caused either by diriving faster than the speed limits or driving drunk. Both issues are not considered as serious thing when you get cought without causing an accident and the people go on doing it untill they kill somebody.
Some regulations are so unreasonable you couldnt believe. Assuming you get cought 3 times for driving drunk in one calendar year. I think in this case they take away your driving lisence for a few years tough I'm not sure for how long. Do you think this is a good punisment to prevent the person from driving drunk and eventually killing somebody? Unfortunately not. Some poeple in this case simply keep driving without a driving lisence and when they are cought without a driving lisence and they are not drunk it is a simple case of driving without a lisence and nothing further applies. Maybe you pay a small fee.
The same applies for driving faster than allowed. They take your lisence if you do it a few times and you drive without a lisence and get cought and pay a small fee.
At the end, unreasonableness, lack of reasonable regulations, week law system, fools in charge and a terrible railway system is what kills thousands of people in Turkia in traffic accidents. Almost every Turk has lost either a relative or a friend in a Traffic accident.
