I have had the good fortune to attend several United Nations sessions on the subject of road safety, both in Geneva and New York, and I’ve found them to be both interesting and extremely worthwhile.

The latest document they have issued which includes this topic is a draft resolution:
Human Rights Council
Thirty-fifth session
6–23 June 2017
Paragraph 6 on page number 3 “urges States to consider promoting, adapting and implementing road safety policies to protect persons in vulnerable situations, in particular children, youth, older persons and persons with disabilities…”

I am given to understand that, importantly, this “New Urban Agenda” is the first time that the member states have produced anything linking road safety to human rights.
