Rose 25: Inventory and compiling of a European Good Practice Guide on Road Safety Education targeted at young people

Rose 25: Inventory and compiling of a European Good Practice Guide on Road Safety Education targeted at young people

In September 2003 the European Commission has tendered a project (project lead: KfV) to investigate the situation of Road Safety Education (further on RSE) in all 25 Member States. With this project the European Commission emphasises the need to collect and exchange good practice in order to launch the discussion on RSE Guidelines at European level. This effort to strengthen European RSE networks as well as to create synergies in RSE research and development is an important investment for the benefit of the young generation.

Project Duration: December 2003 until March 2005

Main purpose of the project

  • Collecting measures of good practice in Road Safety Education (RSE) for children and teenagers in the Member States of EU-25
  • Compiling European guidelines for best practice

  • Children and teenagers aged 3 to 17 (moped-users and pre-drivers are included, the training for car license, motorbike license and novice drivers are excluded)
