17 people died in traffic accidents in Finland in December last year , while 281 were injured.
Experts say driver error and fatigue are key to reducing accidents on Finnish roads.
Saturday is predicted to be one of the busiest days of the year on the nation's roads.
Drivers should create a mental checklist before setting out on a long journey, experts say.
80 percent of respondents to Fintraffic 's survey noted the importance of keeping a safe distance from other vehicles.
Statistics Finland's figures show that one third of fatalities last December , and one fifth of injuries, were caused by head-on collisions.
A sufficient safety gap improves visibility, helps with anticipation and enables a quick reaction even in unexpected situations.
