Towards Zero 2016//2020 Victoria’s Road Safety Strategy sets a long term vision of zero deaths and serious injuries on our roads and a target of less than 200 deaths by 2020. Research tells us that country road users are three times more likely to be killed and 40 % more likely to be seriously injured than drivers in metropolitan Melbourne (Victoria Police, 2014). That 3 out of 4 country fatalities involve older model cars speaks volumes about modern-day “safer cars”. Accordingly, our aim is to reduce road trauma and create safer roads by working closely with our road safety partners and the community to embed the Safe Systems approach; Safer roads, Safer speeds, Safer road users and Safer vehicles.
