Overview
Managing speed is key to improving road safety. The speed at which a vehicle travels
influences the risk of a crash, the severity of the injuries received and the chance of
death.
The second edition of the Speed Management Manual includes new case studies, data and
guidance for decision-makers on setting and enforcing speed limits, modifying roads to
reduce speed, making use of in-vehicle technologies, raising awareness of the dangers of
speeding and tracking the impact of policies and actions.
