Source: Estimated impact of average speed changes based on advice from Colin Brodie Consulting 2019. Original calculation assumed 120 rural DSI and 560 urban DSI with existing average speeds of 85 km/h rural and 55 km/h urban. Applied Elvik 2009 fatality and serious injury coefficients (10%/90%) to have rural
coefficient of 0.036 and urban 0.021. Based on above, 5 km/hr reduction in operating speeds across the network would result in an overall reduction of 76 DSI (11%) and similar reductions through engineering improvements estimated to cost around $700-800M. Given DSI in Auckland has decreased since the original
calculation, this has been conservatively applied to reach a lower minimum level of DSI change of 50. Facts on left hand side from Monash University, 2020, Enhanced Crash Investigation Study. Estimate of cost of engineering improvements is based on delivering 10 DSI/$100M.

Percentage range of 40-50% of deaths and serious injuries occurring on high-risk roads is an estimation based on Abley 2019 risk mapping report citing 48% of all injury crashes occurring on high-risk roads.
Contributing factors for speeding (inappropriate speed in traffic crash report), alcohol/drugs, distraction and red-light running are based on 2015-19 deaths, and deaths and serious injuries figures.                                 speed limits
Not wearing seat belt figures are for deaths and serious injuries separately and the percentage is out of in-vehicle DSI not total DSI. Note percentages do not add up to 100 as a crash may have a number of factors.                                                                                15
Vision Zero and Safe Speeds: Our journey 2017 - 2021

                                                                  Policy and regulatory settings

                                                                  Demerit points are currently only able to be issued on officer issued speed infringements.
                                                                  This means less than 1 in 8 speed infringements in Auckland in the past five years has included demerit points.
                             What Aucklanders say

                                                           74%    Support much higher fines for using a mobile phone while driving (Currently $80)

                                                           75%    Support compulsory roadside testing of drivers for drug use

                                                                  Agree the penalties for drinking and driving are not very severe even if you are caught

                                                           44%    Agree the penalties for not wearing a seat belt are not very severe even if you are caught (Currently $150)

                                                           81%    Agree compulsory breath testing helps lower the road toll

                                                           89%    Agree enforcing the use of seat belts helps lower the road toll
