8 Slow Down it s a no brainer A staggering 50% of serious brain injuries in Alberta are due to speed related crashes. Speeding increases the severity of collisions. It s unacceptable that half of all serious brain injuries are due to speed related collisions. Everyone needs to slow down and drive for the road conditions to reduce this tragic statistic. Wayne Drysdale, Minister of Transportation, Government of Alberta April 2, 2015
9 Edmonton Police Service 2014 Citizen Survey
10 Top Collision Cause Follow too close collisions are typically recorded as the top cause of collisions in Edmonton In many of these cases speed is a factor At 50 km/h a driver needs approx. 35 metres to react and brake in time to avoid a collision At 80 km/h 69 metres is required Many motorists either tailgate or fail to leave enough space between their vehicle and the one in front
11 Cost of Collisions The estimated total cost of collisions in the Capital Region is almost $1 billion every year in direct costs and at least that much or more in indirect costs. *Source: Collision Cost Study
12 Speed Management Committee Speed Management Plan
13 Speed Management Committee
14 Speed Management Plan STRATEGY 1: Develop an effective and efficient speed management framework and flowchart process to identify, prioritize and process citizen complaints and speeding hotspots in support of the Speed Stat model. STRATEGY 2: Increase community awareness, knowledge and understanding of the dangers and consequences of exceeding the speed limit. STRATEGY 3: Target for special programs identified through enforcement and other community safety initiatives, drivers who repeatedly and in a dangerous manner violate traffic laws in the City of Edmonton. STRATEGY 4: Ensure speed limits and zones are appropriate and consistent throughout the City of Edmonton. STRATEGY 5: Promote and implement appropriate speed limits in residential areas and areas of high pedestrian and bicyclist activity. STRATEGY 6: Enhance the network of fixed intersection safety cameras at suitable locations. STRATEGY 7: Monitor, research and evaluate developments in road based measures to improve speed related road safety. STRATEGY 8: Work with the Edmonton Police Service to support strong Police enforcement operations aimed at deterring speeding.

19 Why do People Speed? They re in a hurry. They re inattentive to their driving. They don t take traffic laws seriously; they don t think the laws apply to them. They don t view their driving behavior as dangerous. They don t expect to get caught. Some or all of the above.
