About the road safety forum
The road safety work in the UNECE started with the establishment, in March 1950, of the “Ad Hoc Working Group on the prevention of road accidents”. The work has been carried out subsequently by the “Group of Experts on Road Traffic Safety (GE.20)” and since 1988 by the Working Party on Road Traffic Safety (WP.1).
Within the general mandate of the United Nations, WP.1 initiates and pursues actions aimed at reinforcing and improving road safety, developing and harmonizing traffic regulations and rules for road signs and signals while also taking account notably of the environment, and strengthening relations between countries.
