| 520 | |a In 2010 Member States at the United Nations General Assembly unanimously adopted a Resolution proclaiming a Decade of Action for Road Safety (2011 - 2020). The extent of support for this resolution by Member States indicates a growing awareness of the scale and devastation of road traffic injuries as a global public health and development concern. This Report which establishes the baseline burden of road traffic crashes and the status of global road safety efforts at the start of the Decade of Action shows that 1.26 million people were killed on the world's roads in 2010. This is unacceptably. | ||
