Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Why is road safety in the US not on par with Sweden, the UK, and the Neherlands? : Lessons to be learned

Publicación: Michigan : The University of Michigan, Transportation Research Institute Ann Arbor, 2013Notas: Sumario: This study compared road safety and related factors in the U.S. with those in Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands, in order to identify actions most likely to produce casualty reductions in the U.S. The reviewed topics were basic country statistics, road fatalities and various fatality rates, national road-safety strategies, and selected road-safety issues. The main differences concerned structural and cultural factors (such as vehicle distance driven), and procedural factors (such as road-safety strategies and targets, alcohol-impaired driving, exceeding speed limits, and use of seat belts)Materia / lugar / evento: Seguridad vial Accidentes de tráfico Prevención de accidentes Estadísticas Programas de actuación Estudios comparativos Estados Unidos Suecia Reino Unido Países Bajos Otros autores: Sivak, Michael
