McKinsey has developed a road-safety cost curve that makes it possible to compare the impact and expense of different road-safety countermeasures and has researched more than 200 of them in the academic and corporate literature. One European city that has been using this approach plans to invest approximately €5 million a year through 2020 in a variety of prioritized countermeasures expected to cut traffic fatalities and severe injuries in half. A large proportion of these investments will be funded by reallocating resources already in the budget, and not new money. Ultimately, the program will be cost negative, saving the city about €60 million a year.
