The problem of providing stable economic foundations for implementing and managing road safety programs is the key to improved effectiveness and efficiency of road safety work. A decision is seldom taken to ensure the availability of a budget for road safety activities from the national budget. Moreover, the lack of information on measures implementation costs at national and international level, combined with a lack of knowledge on the methods appropriate to calculate these costs, makes the evaluation of the actual implementation expenses an estimation by itself.

Most of the data presented and analysed in this chapter has been collected from the ten participating countries during the period of our project within the ADB-ASEAN-ASNet program and visits to the region (in 2004).

It includes accident statistics from the region, country reports, external links to other international reports (e g. ADB reports), and much more.

To facilitate road safety comparisons between countries, Coimtiy Overviews were developed in DaCoTA for each countiy [AAR 12], not only presenting the current state of road safety in terms of annual number of crashes or traffic victims, but also containing information on precursors for crashes, such as behavior and policy in a countiy. This information is organized by using the Road Safety Pyramid [WEG 05] which covers all layers related to stmcture and culture, programs and measures, road safety performance, indicators, road safety outcomes and social cost.
