Driving down the road toll : building a safer system. Interim report, October 2011.

The Netherlands has achieved one of the best road safety records in the world by using a Safe System approach, with a fatality rate 40 per cent lower than in South Australia. To put this into perspective, if South Australia achieved the same fatality rate per head of population, 40–50 lives would be saved each year. As an Adelaide Thinker in Residence Professor Wegman shared his and the Netherlands wealth of experience with South Australians, and contributed to the State Road Safety Strategy (2011–2020) with specific road safety initiatives for South Australia.
