Civil society organizations and advocates play a crucial role in enhancing road safety and keeping governments and international organizations accountable.

@ITF_Forum starts tomorrow under the theme “Greening Transportation”. Expecting discussions on road safety interventions like 30km/h speed limit that saves lives and enables active mobility and the @RoadSafetyNGOs campaign #CommitToAct.

Time to call on leaders to #MakeitSafe

[Road Safety Alliance @RoadSafetyNGOs]

There is a 73% chance of a #pedestrian dying if hit by a car traveling at 65 km/h, as opposed to a 13% chance at 30 km/h. We have created a form of mobility that is not safe. We need to change. Now. We need to #MakeItSafe #CommitToAct #MobilitySnapshot

[Vale Motta @valemotta]

In a busy week for road safety, it is an honor to represent the @unrsf at the Road Traffic Accidents workshop by @GulfCDC and @GHC_GCC in Riyadh.

We are all pedestrians at some point.

According to #Roadsafety Status Report, most people identify as pedestrians & public transport users, yet only 47 countries have policies to promote walking, cycling, and public transport.

Remember: if pedestrians are safe = all are safe

New @WHO report on #RoadSafety gives some cause for celebration – 5% ↓ in deaths (16% ↓ in death rates) since 2010, despite doubling of vehicle fleet & population increasing by 1 billion.
This should give us energy to redouble efforts. #RethinkMobility

Today @who launched the Global Status Report on Road Safety. Even though we have seen a decrease in road deaths in this period, 92% of these occur in low and middle income countries.

There is an urgent need to mobilize resources to address safe mobility.

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

Every minute more than 2 road traffic deaths occur. That's over 3200 per day.

23% of the yearly 1.19 million deaths are pedestrians.

🚦 Despite notable progress road safety remains an urgent global issue ⛔️
