Abstract

The Secretary General of the ECMT gives a plea for more research in road safety. No other cause of violent death in times of peace exacts anywhere near such a heavy toll as road traffic. The cause of up to 95% of road accidents is to be found in some form of human behaviour. A deeper insight into the reasons for irresponsible behaviour in traffic is needed. Research should be dedicated to the human behaviour in car driving.
