We draw on our own knowledge to deliver a total solution. The Main Goal identified in road safety is to ensure a decrease in road accidents, as well as reduce road traffic offences. Recent data indicates that the threat to road safety and offences are on the increase. This is true with how these data are recorded by the Federal Road Safety Commission.
