PIN Flash 12 Reducing Child Deaths on European Roads
PIN Flash 12 Reducing Child Deaths on European Roads
Some 18,500 children have been killed in road collisions over the past ten years in the EU-27, around 1,200 of them in 2007 alone. At least half of those deaths, 600, could have been avoided, had the level of child road safety been the same across Europe as in Sweden.
These and other results from the latest ETSC PIN country ranking on child road safety have been published on the ETSC website and will be discussed today at 10am at the Swedish Permanent Representation to the EU in Brussels with Speakers from the European Child Safety Alliance, the Swedish Road Administration (SRA) and Portuguese Association for Child Safety Promotion (APSI).
Feel free to join us!
