Section 1: Top Safety Concerns for Each Emphasis Area

The current SHSP focuses on 13 emphasis areas (EA), which are predominant factors that contribute to or result in fatalities or serious injuries. The EAs are organized by the five (5) elements from the Safe System Approach (Safe Road Users, Safe Vehicles, Safe Speeds, Safe Roads, and Post-Crash Care).

This section aims to understand which safety issues within each emphasis area are most concerning to the public. Each question focuses on one emphasis area. Questions are listed in order of the five elements from the Safe System Approach.
