DaCoTa: Road Safety Data Collection, Transfer and Analysis (R-2123)

Road safety policy should be based on scientific evidence and the European pooling of knowledge is the most efficient way to transform knowledge into policy. DaCoTa aims to provide policy makers with adequate data, information and tools for performing evidence-based policy making. In earlier and current EU projects, a rich variety of data, information and methods has been gathered and will continue to be gathered. It is now time to make this stock of knowledge accessible and directly usable for the development of road safety policy and decisions.
