As transportation professionals we have a moral obligation to protect lives while creating a reliable transportation system. Recognizing that humans are human and that they will continue to make errors when traveling, one way to implement a Safe System strategy is to reduce the opportunity for error by:
The Safe System approach aims to eliminate fatal & serious injuries for all road users. It does so through a holistic view of the road system that first anticipates human mistakes and second keeps impact energy on the human body at tolerable levels. Safety is an ethical imperative of the designers and owners of the transportation system.
The Safe System webpage was developed in partnership with the Road to Zero Coalition and members of the RTZ Safe System Working Group. To learn more about how Safe System provides a safety-net for the user, visit the ITE Safe System technical page. Speed management is an important element associated with transportation safety and Vision Zero.
Within the 4 E’s of transportation safety, “engineering” and “education” are two of the more traditional focuses for transportation engineers and planners. However, the importance of “enforcement” and “emergency responses” should not be understated, and both are critical elements of a successful roadway safety management program.
