Road safety refers to the measures and practices designed to prevent road users from becoming involved in road traffic accidents. This encompasses a wide range of initiatives aimed at enhancing the safety of roads and vehicles, as well as the behavior of drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. Key components of road safety include the enforcement of traffic laws, improvement of road infrastructure, the use of safety equipment (such as seat belts and helmets), education and awareness campaigns about safe driving practices, and the implementation of engineering solutions like traffic signals, speed limits, and signage. The ultimate goal of road safety is to reduce accidents, injuries, and fatalities on roadways, creating a safer environment for all users.
