(2) According to the Safe System approach, death and serious injury in road accidents is largely preventable. It should be a shared responsibility at all levels to ensure that road crashes do not lead to serious or fatal injuries. In particular, well- designed and, properly maintained and clearly marked and signed roads should reduce the probability of road traffic accidents, whilst "“forgiving"” roads (roads laid out in an intelligent way to ensure that driving errors do not immediately have serious consequences) should reduce the severity of accidents.
