Details and defines the scale of the problem and works on the premise that prevention is better than cure. Sets out the context and road safety audits in practice and looks at examples from outside the UK. Studies national standards and advice. Looks at road safety audits carried out on local streets and the issues to be considered by Local Authorities. Offers suggestions to development of a local procedure and policy and discusses the legal implications of the road safety audit.
