Scandinavian analyses suggest that further major gains in safety are available if nations are prepared to pay the mobility cost. Much lower reductions in road death may flow from strategies that avoid the 'loss' of mobility. Governments need to explicitly address the implied trade-offs. The context surrounding the trade-off decision process is undergoing rapid change. There is an urgent need to make the process more strategic, without losing its current inclusiveness. (a)
