Comparison of specifications for highway safety audi ts of China , the United States , and Australia
Abstract
Traffic safety is one of the three major problems of transportation. To build a transportation power, China has proposed the call of “facilitating the transportation development from pursuing the speed and scale to paying more attention to quality and safety”, and improving the audit specifications of road safety is an important basis for increasing the transportation safety level. This paper firstly introduced the background where China, the United States and Australia issued the audit specifications of road safety, and then compared the differences between the three countries in the aspects of the audit process for road safety, audit indexes and content. Finally, it revealed the deficiencies of the existing specifications in China by analyzing the advanced concepts and experiences of the developed countries in road safety audit, which can provide references for improving the specifications for road safety audit.
