520 |a "This 2019 edition of the Regional Road Safety report presents the latest available data covering a range of road safety issues. Key data from WHO's global report informs the comprehensive survey results gathered from 30 of the 35 countries of the Americas. The results indicate that current trends will prohibit the Region from meeting the SDG target to halve the number of road deaths. To reduce road traffic injuries and meet the global goals, road safety must be prioritized as a key policy issue in each country of the Americas, as road traffic deaths in the Region account for 11% of global road traffic deaths. Compounding the safety risks, current law enforcement and surveillance of safety standards is rated as insufficient by most responding countries. The evidence clearly shows that implementing and properly enforcing legislation targeted to key risk factors has proven to be effective in reducing traffic injuries and fatalities. These best=practice criteria are used to assess individual country progress in creating and enforcing legislation to ensure safe roads. This status report is part of the ongoing effort to improve monitoring and increase access to road traffic data, which will allow countries to better assess road traffic risks and prioritize effective interventions. In so doing, the Americas will strive to reduce injuries and provide safe roads for all to use"--Back cover.
