Abstract

Fact Sheet highlighting the relationships between travel speed, the speed limit, crash risk and injury severity. The relationships are central to Vision Zero and the Safe System approach. The data demonstrates the central regulating role that speed limits play in determining crash and injury risk. The Fact Sheet highlights the crash reduction savings associated with increased compliance with the speed limit.
