The Asia–Pacific road safety observatory’s indicators for member countries

This report prepared by an Asia–Pacific Road Safety Observatory (APRSO) taskforce analyzes how improving crash and accident data collection can better protect lives on the region’s roads. It looks at the type of data countries should prioritize and explains why bolstering data quality would help reach targets of halving road injuries and deaths. APRSO recommends collecting aggregated data to analyze trends and set strategic priorities. In presenting a sample questionnaire for countries, it shows that generating robust data and analysis is key to improving actions and policies on road safety for the region.
