"The Global Status Report on Road Safety 2013, released Thursday in Geneva by the World Health Organization, found that only 28 countries of the 182 surveyed had adequate laws for drinking and driving, speeding, and use of motorcycle helmets, seat belts and child restraints," the New York Times' "Wheels" blog reports (Mohn, 3/14). "Governments need to revise their driving laws and vehicle safety standards if the number of deaths from road traffic crashes is to be substantially reduced," according to the report, which "show[ed] that more legislative muscle and better enforcement is needed to keep pedestrians, drivers and cyclists safe on the roads," the U.N. News Centre writes.
