| description |
Road traffic injuries are a major but
neglected global public health problem. Worldwide, the
number of people killed in road traffic accidents each year
is estimated at almost 1.2 million, while the number injured
could be as high as 50 million. Without increased efforts
and new initiatives, the total number of road traffic
injuries and fatalities worldwide is forecast to rise by 65
percent between 2000 and 2020, while in low and
middle-income countries, road traffic fatalities are
expected to increase by as much as 80 percent over the same
period. In 2002, road traffic injuries were the ninth
leading cause of years lost worldwide, equal to 2.6 percent
of the global burden of disease. On current trends, by 2020,
road traffic injuries are likely to be the third leading
cause of years lost. Part one of this reports presents the
achievements of the Chinese Government in the last five
years and the challenges it faces. Part two reviews the
World Bank's experience with road safety in China over
the last 20 years and summarizes the legacy of its efforts
and the lessons learned. Finally, part three discusses
recommendations on the way ahead for World Bank's road
safety initiatives in China. |
