Traffic Safety Culture

​

According to a working definition of the US Department of Transportation Safety Council (US DOT), traffic safety culture is defined as “The shared values, actions, and behaviours that demonstrate a commitment to safety over competing goals and demands”.

​

Ηοwever, there is still not an official agreed term on what traffic safety culture is. Projects such as Traffic Safety Culture (TraSaCu) aim at developing a cultural approach in road traffic safety research and accident prevention.

​
