We support the Safe System approach to enhance road safety.
This approach includes five key pillars:
Safe Road Users/Behaviours
Safe Speeds
Safe Roads
Safe Vehicles
Post-collision Response
By addressing all parts of the road system, we ensure that if one area fails, the others will still support safe travel. This way, no one should suffer serious harm from a road traffic collision.
The Safe System acknowledges that while road users should act safely and legally, mistakes can happen, leading to crashes.
Everyone involved in shaping the traffic environment shares the responsibility to prevent these mistakes from causing serious harm. This includes planners, designers, investors, legislators, builders, maintainers, enforcers, and educators.
Together, we can work towards our Vision Zero goal: no one should be killed or seriously injured on our roads.
