Win a week-end in a European capital

Presentation

“Road safety” might be just a concept, but it has a direct impact on our day to day lives. As the commitments signed by the stakeholders play a major role in improving road safety at national levels, your involvement in depicting correct and incorrect road safety situations is also valuable.

Send us examples of good and bad practices on road safety from your street, city, country and we will publish them on the Summer Contest 2009 page.

All you have to do is record a road safety image (a good practice example or a bad practice example), add an explanatory text and send it to us. By this, you already subscribed to the ERSC Summer Contest 2009.
