Assessment of Integrated Vehicle Safety Systems for Improved Vehicle Safety
AbstractRoad safety is a major societal issue. In 2009, more than 35,000 people died on the roads of the European Union, i.e. the equivalent of a medium town, and no fewer than 1,500,000 persons were injured. The cost for society is huge, representing approximately 130 billion Euros in 2009.

Global Priorities for Vehicle Safety [PDF]
Presently, just over 1 million people die annually in road crashes; that number will rise to 2 million by 2020. 85% of these fatal crashes occur in developing countries, and of those, about 75% involve pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists. Over the past 10 years several organizations have attempted to outline the nature and severity of these ...
