Naples is grappling with a surge in road fatalities, with 21 deaths reported this year.
The recent tragic accident involving Valeria Vertaglio, a 42-year-old mother, has sparked public outcry.
Citizens, particularly mothers from Sant'Erasmo, have staged peaceful protests demanding safer roads.
The local government acknowledges the issue, with plans to implement 60 safety measures, including new traffic lights and pedestrian crossings, by year-end.
However, officials stress that road safety is a shared responsibility, urging citizens to set better examples for the youth.
The city faces challenges with limited police resources, making comprehensive road patrols unfeasible.
