The National Police Headquarters has stated that during the five-day Khmer New Year celebration, from April 12 to 16, 2025, there were 44 traffic accidents across the country, resulting in 36 deaths and 66 serious injuries. The Department of Traffic and Public Order Police has confirmed that the factors that cause traffic accidents during the four-day Khmer New Year celebrations are speeding, driving on the wrong side of the road, overtaking dangerously, making dangerous turns, not respecting the right of way, and driving under the influence of alcohol, especially at night.

Abba Father, we ask for Your protection over Cambodia’s roads and highways. Bring peace and calm to those behind the wheel.
May Your presence guide each journey and prevent recklessness (The Bible, Psalm 4:8).

Lord, we pray that future holidays be marked by safety and responsibility. Turn hearts away from dangerous behavior, help drivers make wise decisions, guided by safety and love for others (The Bible, Psalm 90:12).
