• First cause of death ages 15 to 29 years old
• Plus up to 50 million people with non-fatal injuries
• Economic losseso 3% of GDP globally
o 5% of GDP in low- and middle-income countries
• Source of health inequities

4th United Nations Global Road Safety Week
5% cut in average speed can result in 30% reduction in the number of fatal crashes

Conclusions• Progress is being made: number of deaths stabilizing,
but pace of improvements is slow
• Many countries lag far behind in terms of best practice
legislation
• Enforcement is weak across risk factors globally
• The needs of pedestrians and cyclists are still
neglected, yet making walking and cycling safer is
essential to reducing road traffic deaths, and will have
other health co-benefits
