Based on a Global Status Report on Road Safety in 2009 [ and in 2013 [, 2007 and 2010 Road Traffic Fatalities (RTFs) data for ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) countries were analyzed and compared, respectively. In this research, both reported and estimated RTFs per 100,000 populations showed relatively low correlation with Gross National Incomes (GNIs) per capita among AEC countries. In contrast, the reported and estimated RTFs per 1,000 vehicles showed reasonably high correlation with both GNIs per capita and number of vehicles per 1,000 populations. The greater the GNIs per capita and/or number of vehicles per 1,000 populations, the lower the reported and estimated RTFs per 1,000 vehicles are. As GNI per capita increases, the proportion of 4-wheeled motor vehicles will rise and the proportion of 2-and 3-wheeled motor vehicles will decline. Therefore, 2-and 3-wheeled motor vehicles were the main contributor to RTFs. The improvement of the adoption and enforcement of national road safety legislation can be generally realized. However, only high income countries (including Singapore and Brunei Darussalam) clearly showed the high performances and only these two countries has adopted and enforced the child-restraint law.
