Abstract

How public bodies behave when they deliver road safety is determined by a mix of three kinds of forces: (1) public perceptions; (2) personal convictions and interests; and (3) knowledge of facts. It is argued that at presence the knowledge of facts is insufficiently influential in the mix. It follows that the behaviour exhibited by public bodies needs to be changed so as to endow fact-based professionalism with more influence.
