Here at #IRF2024 #IRFWorldCongress24 highlighting the ‘10 Step’ plan for safer road infrastructure. An approach to save lives globally but if you also need a cost benefit rationale $1 spent = $44 preventing injury return on the rds. @iRAPSavingLives @EASSTransport @LASERINTERNATIO @DmitrySambuk @greg_smith_321 @ZammataroS

[World Conf. Injury Prevention & Safety Promotion @Conf_Safety]

‘Motorcycles are useful, but also vulnerable. We need to understand the scope and scale of the issue. Motorcyclists like all road users require safe infrastructure- separate lines, skid free regions, safe speed instructions and training. Children, such as pillion riders, should also be protected by being equipped with standardized helmets.’-
@saulbillingsley, Director General, @FIAFdn on Two-Wheeler Safety.
