ACRS MEDIA RELEASE: https://lnkd.in/gkeuDfWc LACK OF COMMITMENT TO ADDRESSING AUSTRALIA’S ROAD TRAUMA CRISIS The Australasian College of Road Safety (ACRS) is deeply concerned by the alarming rise in road fatalities, with 1,300 lives lost in 2024—the highest trauma rates since 2012. Despite clear warnings and evidence-based recommendations, the Federal Government has failed to take decisive action, allowing this crisis to escalate. The ACRS is also disappointed by the Government’s decision to forgo political representation at the upcoming Global Ministerial Conference on Road Safety, signalling a troubling lack of commitment. ACRS calls for urgent investment in Local Government capacity to implement proven safety measures and urges the Federal Government to prioritise road safety as a national imperative.
