Using Appropriate Language in Road Safety Communication

 The language we use when discussing road safety plays a critical role in shaping public perception, policy, and action. 

Using precise, sensitive, and accurate terms can influence how society views road safety issues and, ultimately, how governments and communities work to reduce road fatalities and injuries. 

This guide outlines the best language to use when writing or talking about road safety to highlight the preventable nature of crashes and the seriousness of road trauma.
