Driver Education World Conference 2008

April 19th, 2008 | by admin |

According to the World Health Organisation, road traffic crashes are now the second biggest killer in the world after AIDS. More than 1.25 million people die on the world’s roads every year. In the time it takes you to read this paragraph, two more people will have died and 35 will have been seriously injured.

Road safety is not a national problem – it is an international problem. SAFEX 2008 asks the question: what are the world’s governments doing to address this global catastrophe?

SAFEX 2008, organised by road safety experts IVV and sponsored by the DIA, is the only world road safety conference to target driver trainers and driver education and provide a truly international perspective to the issues involved in reducing the number of deaths on the world’s roads.

SAFEX 2008 is coming back to London after many years. The conference offers opportunities to meet old friends and make new contacts with road safety practitioners, academics, politicians, key researchers and members of the driver training industry from around the world.

The Driver Education World Conference is being held in London from the 16th-18th May inclusive. More information can be found at http://www.ivvsafex.com/
