Road traffic accidents (RTAs) are a public health problem worldwide, representing the leading cause of death in the 5-29 age group and the eighth leading cause of death in all age groups. It also accounts for 12% of all deaths on the planet and 20 to 50 million individuals with some kind of sequelae, whether osteoarticular or not. This is a literature review study, in addition to a cross-sectional data collection from 2018 to 2022 from the SUS Hospital Information System (SIH-SUS) by the SUS IT Department (DATASUS) and also by calculating data on the Compulsory Insurance for Personal Injury Caused by Land Vehicles platform. For this reason, public strategies for effective enforcement, strengthening mobility and accessibility policies, improving roads, implementing and improving traffic legislation and investing in safe and sustainable public transportation are necessary.
