Down to zero

The Transport Accident Commission has thrown its support behind Victoria Police’s new campaign Road to Zero: It Starts With You.
The campaign will see police saturate the state with 11 large scale operations targeting road safety over the next three months.
For every person killed on Victorian roads, a further 20 are left with serious injuries.
These are people’s brothers, mothers, sisters and sons and, for many of them, life will never be the same.
Serious injury is the hidden toll of road trauma and each year close to 6000 Victorians are affected.
Victoria Police and TAC invite the community to join with us, to take ownership of road safety and stand together as we work towards our mission of zero road deaths and zero serious injuries.
As part of the Road to Zero campaign, you’re invited to share your stories about road trauma on Victoria Police’s Facebook page or on twitter using #roadtozero.
Together we can make every journey a safe one.
Janet Dore,
CEO Transport Accident Commission
