Safe Systems

Learn2Live supports the Safe System Approach - a vision of a transport system that is free from death and serious injury. Safe System is based on the underlying principles that:

• human beings make frequent mistakes that lead to road collisions;
• the human body by nature has a limited ability to sustain collision forces with known tolerance to injury thresholds; and
• it is a shared responsibility between stakeholders (road users, road managers, vehicle manufacturers, etc.) to take appropriate actions to ensure that road collisions do not lead to serious or fatal injuries.
