Fact Finding Mission 3 Review and Discussions Melbourne, Australia - June 2012 Atsany Buonowikarto
It has been a VERY busy week…
We learned a few things from various presenters and visits…
Even had a bit of fun along the way..
But before you go back, let’s get serious…
Knowledge is not power, that’s only half true.
It is the sharing and application of that
knowledge that gives you real power..
What did we go through?
The road safety model and application in Victoria
The importance of Partnership and Coordination
Road safety awareness and human behavior
Road safety programs in the regions
Police enforcement strategies and programs
The critical role of crash data to develop policies and programs
Infrastructure programs and road safety engineering
Road safety audits and Blackspots
The significance of community engagement
The Safe System
The Safe System Approach
The modern approach to improving road safety recognises that road users will make mistakes and crashes will occur
Roads / roadsides and vehicles should be designed so that there is a low probability of death or serious injury if a road user makes a mistake
Drivers have an obligation to drive responsibly and obey the road rules – particularly speed limits
This is the basis of the Safe System approach to road safety
Agency roles & responsibilities
VicRoads – Infrastructure, Network operation & speed limits – Registration & Licensing – Road Safety Act & Regulations (advice to Minister for Roads) – Vehicle standards – Behavioural & Educational program development
TAC – Marketing and promotion, new technologies, enforcement

Road Safety Engineering Challenges in Indonesia
There is a reliance on international consultants because of lack of knowledgeable and experienced local road safety engineers – Risk that local factors that affect road safety will be not
understood and / or overlooked – Need to work side by side with local engineers to ensure
that knowledge transfer is achieved
“SUSTAINABLE CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT”
Design standards and guidelines are poorly documented, are not comprehensive and lack detail – Road safety engineers in Indonesia need better standards
and guidelines to put theory into practice – International standards are not always suitable for local
conditions
Road Safety Engineering Challenges in Indonesia
Road user behaviour is poor – for example, at intersections priority is often ignored and / or not understood
– Good design may therefore fail to deliver the best safety outcomes
Speed limits are poorly defined, not well understood and not effectively enforced
– Speed management is a key element of an effective road safety strategy
– Guidelines relating to speed limits and the use of speed limit signs are required
– Speeding will become a greater problem as roads are improved
Road Safety Engineering Challenges in Indonesia
Lack of pedestrian facilities – footpaths and safe road crossings (approx. 25% of road deaths are pedestrians)
– Pedestrian deaths are probably under reported
– Where pedestrian crossings exist, they are generally ignored by drivers and riders
