Opinion: Reducing Cayman’s road fatalities requires a collective responsibility
In 2025, six people lost their lives on Cayman’s roads … as drivers, passengers, cyclists and pedestrians. For a country of fewer than 95,000 residents, each of those road fatalities reverberates across families, workplaces, churches and communities. Behind every statistic is a life cut short and loved ones left grieving.
Over the past several years, the Cayman Islands have averaged about 15 road fatalities per 100,000 people. That is higher than the United States’ rate of roughly 12.2 per 100,000, and similar to or higher than many of your Caribbean neighbors. The Bahamas reports about 16 per 100,000; Jamaica, nearly 18; and Barbados, about 10. For a more complete summary of the story, please see the below link:
