Drinking and driving
BACs should be set at 0.05 g/dl for the general population.
Less than 50%
of countries set this limit!
![Page 23: DECADE OF ACTION FOR ROAD SAFETY 2011-2020 And …€¦ · 1 2 3 Road traffic ... The overall goal of the Decade is to stabilize and then reduce the. forecast level of road traffic](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050407/5f84b7d96283044560337b1b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Seat-belts and airbags
Only 57% of countries
require seat-belts (front & rear)!
Wearing a seat-belt reduces the risk of death among front-seat passengers by 40−65% and among rear-seat occupants by 25−75%.

Motorcycle helmets
Wearing a good quality motorcyclehelmet can reduce the risk of death by ±40% and severe head injury by >70%.
Only 40% of countries have a comprehensive
law and standards!

Child restraints
Infant seats, child seats and booster seats can reduce deaths of infants by ±70% and deaths of small children by between 54%–80% in the event of a crash.
Less than 50% of countries have a child restraint
law!

Speed reduction
Urban speed limits shouldnot exceed 50 km/hand local authorities shouldbe able to reduce speedswhere necessary.
Only 29% of countries have such
laws!

Conclusions
Mobile phone use while driving increasing in prevalence, and symbolises broader problem of increasing driver distraction that is accompanying growth of telematics
Detrimental effect on driving behaviourApproximate increase of 4 in crash riskHands-free sets appear no saferThis is a growing issue, but important to maintain a
comprehensive approach to other key risk factorsSome measure of "reining in" use of mobile phones
is requiredGovts need to take action now, and evaluate so
evidence-based decisions can be made
