EuroRAP in Spainedit
RACE is one of the active members for the European Road Assessment Programme (EuroRAP)in Spain.[1] RACE along with RACC regularly publish maps showing safety characteristics of Spains's roads[2] as well as the risk of being involved in an accident.[3]
The safety rating maps are based on EuroRAP's Road Protection Score Protocol (or Star Rating Protocol) is a measure of how well a road protects road users in the event of an accident. Data on road characteristics is gathered by driving through road inspections using a specially equipped RPS inspection vehicle (Strassentest vehicle in German). Trained assessors then rate the safety features and hazards on the inspected road and use standardised formula to produce a safety rating—star rating—which is comparable across Europe.[4]
Campaigning for safe road designedit
The European Campaign for Safe Road Design is a partnership between 28 major European road safety stakeholders, calling for the European Economic Community to invest in safe road infrastructure initiatives which could cut deaths on European roads by 33% in less than a decade.[5] RACE is one of the campaign's partners in Spain, along with the Reial Automòbil Club de Catalunya (RACC).
