Cover; Contents; Preface; Acknowledgements; Executive summary; Background; The Decade of Action for Road Safety; The purpose of this report; Methodology; Section 1. The current state of global road safety; Many countries have successfully reduced the number of deaths on their roads, while deaths are increasing in others; Middle-income countries are hardest hit; The African Region has the highest road traffic fatality rate; Half of all road traffic deaths are among pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists; Almost 60% of road traffic deaths are among 15-44 year olds
Non-fatal crash injuries are poorly documented Harmonizing data collection on road traffic deaths; Section 2. New road safety laws: progress to date; Reducing speed; Progress to reduce excessive speed has stalled; Reducing urban speeds protects pedestrians and cyclists; Speed limits need stronger enforcement; Reducing drinking and driving; Drink-drive laws should be based on blood alcohol concentration levels; Strong drink-drive laws protect almost 70% of world's population; More stringent drink-drive laws for high-risk drivers; Drink-drive laws need stronger enforcement Almost half of all countries lack of data on alcohol-related road traffic deaths Increasing motorcycle helmet use; Head injuries among motorcyclists are a growing concern; More effort is needed to promote helmet standards and quality; Data on helmet use is weak; Increasing seat-belt use; Progress has been made in tightening up seat-belt laws; Enforcing seat-belt laws needs more emphasis; Only half of countries collect seat-belt wearing data; Increasing the use of child restraints; More countries need to adopt child restraint use; Encouraging child restraint use Lead agencies are vital to developing a national road safety strategy Involving multiple sectors in national road safety efforts is critical; National road safety strategies should include targets to minimize injuries, deaths and key risk factors; Section 3. Transport policies neglect pedestrians and cyclists; Governments need to make walking and cycling safe; Safer roads reduce crash likelihood and severity; Action is needed to make vehicles safer for non-car road users; Public transport can make mobility safer and reduce congestion; Conclusions and recommendations; References Explanatory notes Methodology, data collection and validation; Country profile explanations; Estimating global road traffic deaths; Country Profiles; Statistical Annex |
