road safety advocacy

Road safety advocacy involves promoting awareness, policies, and practices to reduce traffic accidents and protect all road users. It aims to educate the public about safe driving behaviors, advocate for better road infrastructure, and influence government policies to enforce laws such as speed limits, seatbelt use, and drink-driving rules. The goal is to create safer roads for everyone—drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists—by encouraging responsible behavior and developing safer environments. Effective advocacy combines public education, community engagement, and policy change to minimize accidents and save lives.
