Safety as an ?overarching priority?

• Accidents cause more than 3,500 casualties on the world¡¯s roads every day.* ?
• Road safety has always been, and will remain, the top priority of the road transport industry. ?
• In addition to human lives, accidents also affect transport operations. Disrupted transport supply chains, immobilised vehicles, higher insurance premiums and the cost of repairs all impact transport services.?
• Safety drives all aspects of IRU's work, to help make roads safer everywhere, for all, in alignment with the UN¡¯s Decade of Action for Road Safety.?

People are at the centre of commercial road transport operations

For all approaches to safety, including ¡°Vision Zero¡± and the ¡°Safe System Approach¡±, a focus on the human factor should be the priority.
