Abstract

Further to the material contained in the Contributions for the Road Safety Memorandum of the Minister of Transport (1965) a study was made of the implications for road safety in The Netherlands of the post-1964 trends. Especially the welcome decrease in the number of traffic fatalities in the years 1974 and 1975 should be carefully analysed, because it might disclose the fundamental reasons for it Knowledge of these can be very valuable to those responsible for policy formulation. In order to find a full explanation for the differences which such an analysis discloses, for instance in terms of the effects of measures which are adopted, not only theories and prediction models are needed, but also more reliable and adequately specified basic data. More detailed proposals are made with a view to having this information available in the future.
