Speed is just one part of the road safety picture
We know speed limits that are safe and right for the road are just one part of a safe road system.
Road to Zero, New Zealand’s road safety strategy, sets out the goal of reducing deaths and serious injuries on our roads by 40 percent over the next decade.
This sets an initial target of reducing the number of people killed or seriously injured on New Zealand roads by 40 percent (compared to 2018 levels) by 2030, as a first step towards a long-term goal of no deaths or serious injuries.
You can learn more about how we’re working with the NZ Police, Ministry of Transport, local government, WorkSafe and others to deliver our road safety strategy ‘Road to Zero' here.
We also deliver driver training and education programmes such as DRIVE and BikeReady, and we’re improving vehicle safety. Find out more about our education initiatives and driver training here.
We're also investing in roading improvements and maintenance. You can read more about how we’re making roads safer in Te Tai Tokerau Northland and Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland here.
