Reducing travel speeds by 10 km/h on roads in Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) countries would halve crash deaths and would also reduce the considerable economic cost of accidents. The manual summarizes evidence to help stakeholders in the CAREC region improve speed management. It looks at how road design, vehicle technology, and user behavior affect accidents and outlines potential interventions.
