Since 2010 Latin NCAP has tested over 50
models. The results reveal that the
top selling cars are twenty years behind
UN standards, but show signs of progress
with more four and five star cars now on
the market.
This year Latin NCAP expects to test as
many as twenty models results being
released through the year see:
http://www.latinncap.com/en/home
Latin NCAP has now ended its pilot phase
and become a legal entity. Members
include motoring and consumer groups.
In September Latin NCAP hosted its 2015
Media Day at the ADAC crash lab which
has generated significant news reporting.

8. Over 50 Cars Tested – 26 four and five star results

9. Since 2012 ASEAN NCAP has tested over 50
models with results varying from zero to five
stars. The test requirement in ASEAN NCAP
for five stars includes electronic stability control.
This year ASEAN NCAP plans to test at least 17 cars
with further results being released through the
year. See: http://www.aseancap.org/
In September ASEAN NCAP held its Annual Forum
in Bandung Indonesia bringing together road safety
experts and partners from across the ASEAN
region. They completed their pilot phase and
published a report listing all the results.
Last month ASEAN NCAP also carried out a motor
cycle crash test to demonstrate the two wheeler
safety issues.
2015 Update

10. Over 56 cars tested
with 18 five star
results

11. Safer Cars for India Project
The project was developed with the Indian
Institute for Road Traffic Research (IRTE) in 2013.
Since January 2014 the project has:
Released the results of seven models in 2014.
Organised two launch events in Delhi in January
and November 2014.
Featured on NDTV’s Car & Bike Show and also

12. Safer Cars for India – 2014 Test Results

13. Reactions and Responses
VW began promoting the results for the Polo.
Toyota are making air bags standard on all their
Indian cars and report a pick up in demand.
Datsun Go has been modified to improve body
shell strength and to fit airbags as an option.
The Indian Government plans to apply crash tests
from 2017 and is developing a Bharat NCAP.
SIAM (the Indian Auto Makers) seem to be lobbying
to reduce the speed of the frontal crash test from
the UN Regulatory speed of 56 km/h.
The Courts in the State of Assam issued an interim
order banning sale of small cars failing UN tests.
Global NCAP has urged car makers to voluntarily
apply UN crash tests without any reply from SIAM.

15. Better to Stop the Crash than Have One!
#Stop the Crash is a new global initiative to promote
the most important crash avoidance systems and also
tyre safety.
#Stop the Crash partners include the ADAC, Autoliv, Bosch,
Continental, Denso, Thatcham, ZF-TRW, and the Towards
Zero Foundation.
#Stop the Crash will promote electronic stability control,

Agenda Item 4 - Road Safety & the Global Goals

18. On 25 September the UN adopted a new agenda of
Global Goals including road safety in two of 17 Goals:
Goal 3. Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being
for all at all ages
3.6 By 2020, halve the number of global deaths and
injuries from road traffic accidents
Goal 11. Make cities and human settlements
inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable
11.2 By 2030, provide access to safe, affordable,
accessible and sustainable transport systems for
all, improving road safety, notably by expanding
public transport, with special attention to the
needs of those in vulnerable situations, women,
children, persons with disabilities and older
persons.
Road Safety and the Global Goals

19. The New Agenda for Global Goals calls for a
“revitalized global partnership” bringing together
governments, the private sector, civil society
and the UN system. This inclusive approach is
specifically encouraged with a Goal and target to
mobilize multi-stakeholder partnerships.
Goal 17. Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership
for sustainable development
17.16 Enhance the global partnership for sustainable development, complemented by
multi-stakeholder partnerships that mobilize and share knowledge, expertise,
technology and financial resources, to support the achievement of the sustainable
development goals in all countries, in particular developing countries.
17.17 Encourage and promote effective public, public-private and civil society partnerships,
building on the experience and resourcing strategies of partnerships.

Agenda Item 5 - WHO Global Road Safety Status
Report

21. Global Status Report on Road Safety 2015
The World Health Organisation’s new report
shows that in 79 countries road fatalities have
fallen but risen in 68. Although the overall level
of road deaths has stabilized the WHO warns
that “the pace of change is too slow”.
The report also shows that fatality rates of low
and middle income countries are more than
twice that of high income nations. Despite
having only half the worlds vehicles they also
have 90% of total road deaths.
The report also confirms that road crashes are
the number one killer of young people aged
between 15-19 years.
More action is clearly required to achieve the
new UN target to halve road deaths by 2020.

22. The 2015 Status Report:
•Reveals “worrying data” showing that
only 40 out of a total of 193 UN Member
States fully apply the seven most
important UN safety regulations and these
are overwhelmingly high-income
countries.
•Says “there is an urgent need for these
minimum vehicle standards to be
implemented by every country”.
•Warns that “regulations helping to
protect occupants withstand front and
side impact crashes are poorly
implemented globally” and also calls for
mandatory fitment of electronic stability
control.
Vehicle Safety in the Global Road Safety Status Report 2015
Reg. 14 Seat belt anchorages
Reg. 16 Safety belts & restraints
Reg. 94 Frontal collision
Reg. 95 Lateral collision

Agenda item 5 - Additional Items
Democratising Car Safety: Road Map 2020
Update
Brasilia Declaration
David Ward

24. We have updated our Road Map 2020
recommendations to include:
•motorcycle anti-lock brakes as a
suggested regulatory requirement
and to:
•highly recommend automatic
braking systems.
The latter is only recommended as
it is premature to specify legislation
in the absence of any available
global standards.
Road Map 2020 - Update

25. Ahead of the High level Conference the Brazilian Government
has facilitated an intergovernmental negotiation on the official
meeting communique. The text of the Brasilia Declaration has a
strong section on safer vehicles as follows:
PILLAR 3 – SAFER VEHICLES
Promote the adoption of policies and measures to implement
United Nations vehicle safety regulations or equivalent national
standards to ensure that all new motor vehicles, meet
applicable minimum regulations for occupant and other road
users protection, with seat belts, air bags and active safety
systems such as anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic
stability control (ESC) fitted as standard;
The Declaration will be debated by the UN General Assembly in
April 2016 which will adopt a new road safety resolution.

27. Legislation Save Lives!
Action by the European Parliament 20 years ago
to strengthen European Union crash test
standards have contributed to a 55% reduction
in car occupant fatalities in the EU.
The Parliament amended EU legislation to use a
more realistic frontal impact barrier ‘offset’ by a
40% overlap at 56 km/h & a side impact test at
50 km/h with a 300 mm ground clearance.
These tougher requirements were applied in
the EU from 1998 and were then also adopted
by the United Nations as global standards (Reg.
94 & 95) now applied in 49 countries. By 2020
this number needs to be more than doubled.

28. Legislation Save Lives!
In July Global NCAP has awarded its 2015
Consumer Champion and Individual
Achievement Awards to the European
Parliament and Alan Donnelly to mark the
20th
anniversary of legislation.
Receiving the award Alan Donnelly said:
20 years ago when I was drafting this
legislation, I never imagined that it would
become such a life saver for many families. I am
delighted that it is becoming a bench mark for
countries in the world who have never had any
automobile safety standards in the past. I am
very proud to have played a part in bringing this
about.
