The Safe System Approach
Understanding the guiding framework for reducing roadway fatalities and serious injuries.
A Comprehensive Approach to Roadway Safety
The Safe System Approach was adopted by the U.S. Department of Transportation as the guiding paradigm for addressing roadway safety.
The approach considers five objectives of a safe transportation system.
Achieving zero traffic fatalities and serious injuries requires strengthening each objective and building upon the foundational principles of the Safe System Approach, as illustrated.
