The Road Safety Crisis is Worsening• We will not meet the United Nations Decade
target or the SDG targets
• 2013 = 1.25 million deaths • 2016 = 1.35 million deaths
• Bangladesh: 2013 = 21 316 deaths (WHO for 2013) 2016= 24 954 deaths (WHO for 2016) (Officially, Police: 2 376)

The Road Safety Crisis is Worsening• We will not meet the United Nations Decade
target or the SDG targets
• 2013 = 1.25 million deaths • 2016 = 1.35 million deaths
• Simple extrapolation:…………Brutal prediction:
The decade 2021 to 2030 = 17.4 million deaths and 500m+ injuries Road crashes are the scale of a World War.

Can we afford to do road safety3-7% of GDP is critical but not convincing to some
Q: Does halving deaths & injuries = more GDP growth?
A: YES: Economic analysis of 5 countries by WB/GRSF
(With Bloomberg Philanthropies funding)
- GDP grows faster: 7% to 22% more over 24 years
- For some countries almost an extra 1% per year
Road safety = good economic investment

Road Safety can be delivered: great value
• Road safety is a product, which can be delivered with managed investment
• Evidence-based solutions, not common sense
• Many countries are succeeding and we see close relationships between policy and reduced death numbers
• Example: iRAP Report in China: Investing US$4,579,412 = saves 198 FSI= saves US$ $25,511,967 in crash costs. BCR = 6.

We talk about rOad safety badly: creating barriers to SAFE SYSTEM and
EVIDENCE BASED ACTION

We talk about raod safety badly: Old WRONG model still promoted, creating barriers
TO SAFE SYSTEM and ACTIONWrong answer to a wrong question: Key Q: not what causes crashes but what causes FSI
Lets make salt……….

New Model: Safe System & Scientific Reality
• Focus on solutions not problems: remove any one cause and problem can’t occur
Speed = 100%
