<abstract>Roads traffic injuries in the WHO European Region represent a major public health problem. About 127 thousand people are killed and about 2,4 million injured every year. The publication builds on and complements the World Report on Road Traffic Injury Prevention , analysing in depth the burden of disease from road traffic injury in the European Region , framing the issue in the context of sustainable mobility, presenting a comprehensive systems approach to road safety based on successful experiences developed by some Members States in the Region and highlighting opportunities for the health sector to play a broader role. The publication calls for a multisectoral and evidence based approach to preventing road traffic injuries, with public health playing an important role, emphasizes the importance of a strong political commitment at all levels of government and makes recommendations for action</abstract>
