PLENARY SESSION 1: ASEAN ROAD SAFETY HIGHLIGHTS DR. SITI ZAHARAH ISHAK Director-General Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) ASEAN Road Safety Centre
GLOBAL ROAD SAFETY SCENARIO • Every year, there are 1.35 million road traffic deaths worldwide • 92% of road traffic deaths occur in low- and middle- income countries • Road traffic injuries are now the leading cause of death for children and young adults aged 5-29 years old . • Vulnerable road users account for half of all road traffic deaths globally Source: WHO Global Status Report on Road Safety 2018 2
DISTRIBUTION OF DEATHS BY ROAD USER TYPE Source: WHO, 2018 3
ROAD SAFETY SCENARIO IN ASEAN • In 2016, it was estimated that more than 113,000 people died in road crashes in ASEAN countries. • Diversity among the ASEAN nations – fatality rate per 100,000 populations in Malaysia and Thailand is about 5 times greater than in Singapore. • Road trauma is generally higher in middle income countries and still increasing – this is also true in ASEAN (WHO, 2018). Unless strong action is taken, economic development in ASEAN will be accompanied by increasing deaths and injuries on their roads. 4
