In Colombia, traffic-related accidents not only affect public health, but also the economic sustainability of households, companies, and the insurance system. In this context, having access to technical, objective, and reliable information about the vehicles circulating in the market becomes a key prevention tool. With this purpose, the VIA Awards were created-an initiative developed by CESVI Colombia (Colombian Center for Experimentation and Road Safety) and Fasecolda (Federation of Colombian Insurers), which for more than a decade has guided consumers and raised the standards of the Colombian vehicle fleet.

Making phone calls, adjusting the car radio, operating the navigation system, reading or writing text messages - drivers are often distracted from the task of driving and thus increase the risk of accidents.
