Abstract:

The ability to anticipate the safety consequences of an action constitutes "safety knowledge". The richer the body of safety knowledge, the larger the scope of rational road safety management. The central role of the Transportation Research Board's Committee on Safety Data, Analysis, and Evaluation is to promote the growth of safety knowledge. This paper examines how safety knowledge and its application in road safety management can be improved in the new millennium.
