Road safety
Safety is a fundamental value in mobility
The long-term goal for all modes of transport is to eliminate fatal accidents. Since 2001, road safety work has been guided by the so-called road safety vision: The transport system must be designed in such a way that no one needs to die or be seriously injured in traffic. The vision places human life and health as primary values.
