Objective

The EU target of a 50% reduction in fatalities by 2010 will only be achieved by the introduction of the most effective countermeasures. It relies on the existence of basic knowledge of crashes and their causation and the availability of road safety data to monitor and assess performance. The EC has expressed the demand for a "Road Safety Observatory" in its 2002 White Paper and other public documents. This Proposal is for an Integrated Project that meets those demands. When complete the data resources developed within SafetyNet will revolutionise the EU approaches to road safety. This proposal is for an ambitious and exciting project that will bring together all of the most experienced organisations within the EU to assemble a co-ordinated set of data resources that together will meet the EC needs for policy support.
