Safe Driving is the secret to Road Safety

Road Safety by Coordinating Various Agencies


Today's Road Safety Article comes all the way from a 6/25/09 article from the Jakarta Globe.
The following is a quote:

"Giri called for better coordination among the ministries of transportation, public works, health and education, as well as the National Police, to reduce the number of accidents on Indonesian roads. “Those five are the main institutions related directly to traffic accidents, and without good coordination among them, it would be difficult to improve road safety,” he said. The transportation minister, meanwhile, called on road users to use self-discipline, especially with the recent enactment of a new road safety law.

These experts seem to be calling for multiple government agencies to talk to each other; and for drivers to use self-discipline. Well, we all know how easy it is to implement these two pieces of "safe driving" wisdom.

At least these guys knew how many agencies needed to be coordinated, do you know how many in your city? A better question might be, wouldn't it be better yet, if only one single person were held accountable for road safety?
