Abstract
The National Coalition for Road Safety has taken root, and it will grow increasingly strong. With your personal commitment it will reach out across Sweden and become a regional and local coalition for road safety. Our joint efforts will help to halve the number of people killed in road accidents. Traffic safety is created by many different actors and co-operation and wide-spread responsibility are important ingredients if the goal is to be reached. At the European level similar work to the Swedish National Coalition for Road Safety has started with the establishment of the European Road Safety Programme. The Swedish approach corresponds to the European Road Safety Charter, making it a European Coalition for Road Safety. (Author/publisher)
