Fleet Forum presentation - Beyond Zero Vision, Systemically Safe.

I was asked to present an argument against the Zero Vision (sorry - Vision Zero) approach to road safety at the Fleet Forum Conference 2023. This is a recording of the presentation.

We were given 15 minutes each to present for and against Zero Vision. With Ali Zayerzadeh giving the case for continuing to do what has failed to improve safety for the last decade.

Here is a list of the links from the video:-
