Abstract

Using 1925 to 1970 as the past, 1970 to 1990 as the present, the post 1990 as the future, road safety in Australia has been examined from the perspective on onus, that is, who has responsibility for action to ensure the safe operation of our road system is maximised. In highlighting programs of the past and present and suggesting implications for the future, onus can be shown to have moved solely from the driver to society as a whole with road users, public authorities and industry each having a shared responsibility.
