This goal should save around 5 million lives, avoid 50 million serious injuries, and provide an economic benefit of more than US$3 trillion. Impacts on this scale will enhance country and regional development opportunities. In line with this goal, the Global Plan for the Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020 identified five priorities: 1) road safety management capacity, 2) infrastructure safety, 3) vehicle safety, 4) road user behavior, and 5) post-crash care. This integrated development perspective is also reflected in the World Bank's new transport sector business strategy. The project's inclusive approach delivers road safety interventions in the demonstration corridors and elsewhere.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOAIRCARCAR OWNERSHIPCARSCOST OF TRAFFICCRASH CARECRASH FATALITYCRASH FATALITY RATEDRUNK DRIVINGEMERGENCY RESPONSEFATALITIESFRAMEWORKGOALGREENHOUSE GASHELMETSHOSPITALSINCOMEINJURYINJURY PREVENTIONINTEGRATED DEVELOPMENTINTERNATIONAL ROAD TRAFFICINTERNATIONAL ROAD TRAFFIC ACCIDENT DATABASEINTERVENTIONSLOCAL AIR QUALITYNATIONAL HIGHWAYSNATIONAL ROAD SAFETYNATIONAL ROAD SAFETY STRATEGYNATIONAL ROAD TRAFFICPOLICEPROVINCIAL ROADSRADIOREGIONAL DEVELOPMENTROADROAD CRASHROAD CRASHESROAD DEATHSROAD NETWORKROAD SAFETYROAD SAFETY AGENCYROAD SAFETY EFFORTROAD SAFETY EFFORTSROAD SAFETY ISSUESROAD SAFETY MANAGEMENTROAD TRAFFICROAD TRAFFIC INJURIESROAD USERROAD USERSROADSSAFETY BELTSSAFETY CAMPAIGNSSAFETY ISSUESSAFETY MEASURESSAFETY OUTCOMESSEAT BELTSEAT BELTSTRAFFIC ACCIDENTTRAFFIC CONTROLTRAFFIC CRASHESTRAFFIC FATALITIESTRAFFIC INJURIESTRAFFIC SAFETYTRAFFIC SYSTEMTRANSPORTTRANSPORT SECTORURBAN STREETSVEHICLEVEHICLE SAFETYVEHICLES10.1596/17058
