INTRODUCTION
• Road injury is one of those man-made problems that we have the ability to solve,
• Driving on Indian roads is much more different than driving else at some other place,
• Safe road transport must be a key foundation stone of modern society,
• Daily, there are thousands of casualties,
• More than 100 governments committed at the UN to support the goal of the Decade of Action
• According to the WHO, in the years 2008-2011 thirty-five Countries, with a total population of 680 million, introduced new road safety laws.

INTERNATIONAL ISSUES ON ROAD SAFETY
• Road Traffic Injuries is a Global Epidemic
• Every 6 seconds someone is killed or seriously injured on the world’s roads
• With 1.3 million road deaths each year this is a global epidemic comparable to
Malaria or Tuberculosis
• Nine in ten road deaths and injuries are in developing countries
• Pedestrians, cyclists and other vulnerable road users are the majority of those killed
and injured.
• Road crashes are the leading global cause of death for young people aged 10-24
• According to UNICEF and the WHO, 260,000 children die and another 10 million are
injured in road crashes every year.

ROAD SAFETY MEASURES ACROSS THE WORLD
• Stabilize and Reduce fatalities forecast level by 2020
• Save up to 5 millions of lives,
• Prevent up to 50 million serious injuries
• United Nations Road Safety Collaboration (UNRSC) has developed a global
plan
• Identifies key capacity building and injury prevention measures
• Holistic Safe System approach
