Determining Safe Speeds
The Road Safety Foundation has published a new report entitled ‘Determining Safe Speeds’, working with experts in in-depth collision investigation research from Loughborough University, TRL, Autoliv and Lösningar. The report identifies the speeds that would be required to prevent most deaths and serious injuries. These speeds are evidence-based, given the laws of physics and the fragility of the human body. The report does not make recommendations about speed limit setting; it simply reports this evidence base from in-depth collision investigation studies.
