Popis: A 2010 report, Towards a holistic framework for road safety, prepared by researchers from the University of New South Wales with funding from the NRMA ACT Road Safety Trust, has recently been released. While supportive of progressive initiatives such as Sweden’s Vision Zero policy, the report argues for a broader paradigm shift for road safety, particularly drawing on new thinking in health and ecological sustainability. In essence, a deeper cultural shift is needed, using a broad holistic framework that extends beyond a narrow focus on drivers, vehicles and roads. The report addresses cross-disciplinary approaches for facilitating change. Below is the executive summary of the report, summarising its main themes and recommendations.
