Home - National Road Safety
We all want to arrive safely—whether it’s to school, work or home to your family. This campaign is about choosing smart over reckless in those everyday moments:
- Buckling up instead of risking it
- Slowing down instead of rushing
- Staying alert instead of checking your phone
- Road safety isn’t someone else’s responsibility—it’s yours, too.
Let’s shift the mindset. Let’s choose smart.
National Road Safety Strategy (2023-2038)
The National Road Safety Strategy (2023–2038) is the Cayman Islands Government’s long-term commitment to eliminate road fatalities by 2038.
Led by the Ministry of Planning, Lands, Agriculture, Housing and Infrastructure, the strategy targets four key areas:
- Education – Public awareness campaigns, school outreach, community events
- Enforcement – Targeted patrols, DUI operations, speed checkpoints
- Engineering – Safer intersections, speed-reducing infrastructure, better signage
- Emergency Response – Faster incident reporting, data-driven resource planning
In Year 1, we:
- Installed speed-calming measures in high-risk zones
- Upgraded school zone signage and road markings
- Increased police visibility through 12 targeted enforcement campaigns
- Ran public education campaigns on texting, speeding, and seat belt use
But the work continues. Reckless driving still claims lives. That’s why in Year 2, we’re focused on Smart Vs Reckless.

Stay Seen This Halloween
It’s that time of year when Cayman’s supermarket shelves fill with spooky candy, as families prepare a night of costumes, candy, and community fun. However, Halloween is also a night where vulnerable road users are at a heightened risk, especially young trick-or-treaters walking along poorly lit roads in dark-coloured outfits.
