Slide 2

Annual street passings in Tanzania 2001-2008

Slide 3

Program parts: Better administration of the street wellbeing exertion Making street clients more secure ( making them carry on more securely ) Making our streets more secure Making our vehicles more secure

Slide 4

Better administration The new National Road Safety Policy accommodates setting up a Road Safety Board with full-time proficient staff and ensured subsidizing. It will immediate and organize the national street wellbeing program – however obligation regarding activity law implementation will stay with the Police, and street security building will keep on being finished by the street powers.

Slide 5

Better administration : Key accomplices cooperating Traffic Police : More compelling activity policing could cut down the quantity of street passings speedier than whatever else. Government is looking for improvement accomplices to work with the Police on a noteworthy limit building program. Street powers: The Tanzania National Roads Agency (TANROADS) is focused on conveying more secure streets - it has a little Safety Unit which is trying to "standard" street wellbeing in the association. We should now get the nearby street powers to be more dynamic.

Making street clients act all the more securely National street wellbeing effort The significant reason for most street accidents is terrible driving. Obliviousness of the principles is an element, yet it is for the most part on the grounds that these drivers have a reckless state of mind to the wellbeing of others. The best approach to change conduct is by: Professionally-oversaw national crusades joining reputation (TV publicizing) with serious requirement of movement law.

Making street clients carry on more securely: Other activities: Better driver preparing: official syllabus ( ) Highway Code ( ) Learner Driver's Manual ( ) Tougher driving test Teach kids street wellbeing aptitudes (progressing ) Enforce the movement laws ( wrong s peed, drink-driving, safety belts) ( ) effectively distributed or going to be distributed

Slide 9

Making street clients act all the more securely: Preventing transport drivers from Speeding transports are in charge of the most noticeably awful crashes (25% of all street passings are transport travelers). The fitting of speed limiters on transports neglected to control speeds since proprietors altered them. Current arrangement is to utilize tachographs which record the vehicle speed on a card – a Police officer can read the card toward the end of the adventure and see whether the vehicle has been speeding.

Slide 10

Safer streets Making streets less demanding to utilize, self-authorizing, and additionally lenient is very savvy. We require: Safety-cognizant plan benchmarks (another Geometric Design Manual will be created) Safety review of new plans (TANROADS is examining some of its new plans) Treatment of crash "hotspots" (TANROADS is treating a few, yet the program should be extended – absence of good crash information makes it harder to recognize the 'hotspots')

Slide 11

Safer vehicles Vehicle deformities are a generally minor reason for accidents (10% ?) yet we should expel risky vehicles from our streets. We require: Fitness principles (extreme yet moderate) Mandatory vehicle examination framework (BOT extend – private firms have been welcome to delicate) Random roadside checks (by DVELA investigators and movement police) to recognize and evacuate flawed vehicles
