The shaded areas of the map indicate ESCAP members and associate members.* The Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) is the most inclusiveintergovernmental platform in the Asia-Pacific region. The Commission promotes cooperationamong its 53 member States and 9 associate members in pursuit of solutionsto sustainabledevelopment challenges. ESCAP is one of the five regional commissions of the UnitedNations. The ESCAP secretariat supports inclusive, resilient and sustainable development in the regionby generating action-oriented knowledge, and by providing technical assistance and capacitybuilding services in support of national development objectives, regional agreements and theimplementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. *The designations employed and thepresentation of material on this map do not implythe expression of any opinionwhatsoeveronthepartoftheSecretariatoftheUnitedNationsconcerningthelegalstatusofanycountry, territory, city or area or of itsauthorities, orconcerning the delimitation of its frontiers orboundaries. Asia–Pacific Road SafetyAnalysis Volume I: Regional Trends, Country Performance, and DataIntegrity Acknowledgement The preparation of this report, “Asia–Pacific Road Safety Analysis” was led and coordinated by Mr.Ishtiaque Ahmed,PhD,Economic AEairs OEicer in the Sustainable Transport Section of ESCAP,who provided strategic guidance and oversight throughout its development.Thereport wasprepared under the overall management of Thanattaporn Rasamit, Chief, Sustainable TransportSection, and Weimin Ren, Director of Transport Division. Ms. Yanjun Chen, ESCAP IndividualContractor, themainauthor, contributed herexpertise in dataanalysis and visualization for the report. Her work shaped the report’s structure and core content,presenting a coherent, evidence-based portrait of the state of road safety across Asia and thePacific. Ms. Nabila Imam, ESCAP Consultant, contributed to the comprehensive review of the report,ensuring its consistency, clarity, and high quality. ExecutiveSummary This report provides a systematic review of the current state and evolving trends of road safety inAsia and the Pacific based on authoritative data. As the United Nations regional entity forsustainable transport, ESCAP supports member States in advancingthe road safety objectives ofthe 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, notably Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3 onhealth and SDG 11 on safe and sustainable cities. Target 3.6 calls for halving global deaths andinjuries from road traEic crashesby 2030. This target was reaEirmed by General Assemblyresolution 74/299, which proclaimed 2021 to 2030 as the Second Decade of Action for RoadSafety.1 According to the World Health Organization’slatestGlobal Status Report on Road Safety 2023,about 1.19 million people died in road traEic crashes in 2021, a mortality rate of roughly 15 per100,000 population.2Asia and the Pacific accounted for an estimated 57.5 percent of the globaltotal, the largest regional share based on ESCAP aggregation of WHO estimatesdata.3The regionalmortality rate has declined over the past two decades, but disparities across subregions remainwide. South and South-West Asia and South-East Asia continue to record rates above the globalaverage, while East and North-East Asia has shown steady improvement. The Pacific shows small-population volatility, and North and Central Asia displays mixed patterns driven by diEeringmotorization and enforcement trajectories. Meeting the global goal by 2030 will require an average annual reduction of about 7.4 percent inroad traEic fatalities over 2021 to 2030.4Sustained progress depends on integrated action acrossspeed management, protection of vulnerable road users, safer road and street design, stronger andmore consistent enforcement, post-crash care, and improved data systems that allow timelymonitoring and course correction. Regionaloutcomes are shaped by structural factors,including uneven socio-economicdevelopment,diverse travel patterns,rapid motorization, and urbanization.The COVID-19 periodintroduced short-term shocks to exposure and behavior, but it did not change the long-term needfor system-level protection. Policy responses should align legislation with international goodpractice, invest in self-explaining, forgiving road infrastructure, and strengthen evidence-basedinterventions with public communication and community engagement. This report is presented in two volumes. Volume I provides an overview of regional and subregionaltrends, highlights broad diEerences across country groupings and reviews key data and reportingchallenges. Volume II, to be issued separately, will take acloser look at the underlying people andrisk structure, including the concentration of risk among specific user groups and network types.Taken together, the two volumes underline the need for stronger coordination, peer learning and more targeted investment to accelerate p
