ArmInfo. In 2024, 10 minors died in road accidents in Armenia. This was stated by the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Defense and Security Andranik Kocharyan from the rostrum of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia on November 13.
According to him, such statistics cannot but cause concern, since the death of even one child is always a tragedy. Often, as the parliamentarian noted, the cause of death is the violation of traffic rules, when parents put children in the front seat of the car. The deputy called on the executive authorities to seriously address this problem, and saving budget funds in this matter is simply inappropriate. There are no countries in the world, Kocharyan emphasized, where children would be put in the front seat.
