Road Safety Targets & Eight Major Activities in Japan Japan's Road Safety Targets To reduce the annual number of road fatalities (occurring within 24 hours post-accident) to below 3,000 by 2015, and thus to make Japan's roads the safest in the world. To reduce the total annual number of road fatalities (occurring within 24 hours post-accident) and injuries to below 700,000 by 2015. Eight Major Road Safety Activities in Japan 1. Road infrastructure improvements 2. Promotion of safe driving 3. Enforcement of road traffic laws 4. Provision of fair compensation for road accident victims 5. Road safety public awareness campaigns 6. Enhancement of vehicle safety 7. Reinforcement of emergency rescue operations infrastructure 8. Promotion of road safety research and analysis 7
