Boston: World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims
EntSun News/11107978
~ The Boston City Council is recognizing Nov. 15, 2026, as World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, honoring people killed in roadway crashes and acknowledging the families and communities affected.
The resolution also expresses support for people and organizations advocating for safer streets and efforts to prevent traffic-related deaths. The observance takes place on the third Sunday of November each year and is used by communities to remember crash victims, raise awareness of traffic violence and call for improved street safety.
According to the resolution, Massachusetts recorded 354 traffic fatalities in 2025, including 11 pedestrian deaths in Boston. Pedestrians accounted for 21% of the state's traffic fatalities that year. Boston's Vision Zero crash data cited in the resolution recorded nearly 600 pedestrian-involved crashes requiring an emergency medical services response and more than 200 crashes involving cyclists. As of October 2026, 75 pedestrians had died in traffic crashes across Massachusetts, the resolution states.

The resolution also recognizes Ride for Your Life, which held an event in Boston on Oct. 25, 2026. Participants walked, biked and rallied for change, remembered people killed in traffic crashes in Massachusetts and supported local advocacy organizations.
In July 2026, the Council voted to recommit to Vision Zero, which aims to prevent traffic deaths through safety-focused infrastructure, according to the resolution. It describes the remembrance day as an opportunity to encourage governments to invest in safety measures such as roadway redesign, lower traffic speeds and improved vehicle safety.
The Council is reaffirming its commitment to safer streets and urging the Massachusetts Legislature to advance road safety measures, including authorizing speed cameras and increasing accountability for truck safety features.
