OBJECTIVE
This paper assesses the magnitude of public investment in road safety in Uganda and Pakistan.
METHODS
The study reviewed government budgetary records on expenditure for road safety for each country, as well as World Bank estimates of bilateral and NGO assistance directed to road safety. The authors interviewed key informants in each government who would know about public or NGO activity on road safety.
RESULTS
Budgetary expenditure on road safety at all levels of government in Uganda and Pakistan is $0.09 and $0.07 per capita respectively.
DISCUSSION
The scale of public activity in road safety in Uganda and Pakistan is extremely limited. If there are diminishing returns to scale for road safety investments, this would suggest that the potential effectiveness of properly chosen safety measures could never be higher.
CONCLUSION
Large reductions in morbidity and mortality are likely if investment in road safety is expanded.
目的
本文评估乌干达和巴基斯坦在道路安全方面的公共投资规模。
方法
该研究查阅了每个国家政府关于道路安全支出的预算记录，以及世界银行对用于道路安全的双边和非政府组织援助的估计。作者采访了各国政府中了解道路安全方面公共或非政府组织活动的关键信息提供者。
结果
乌干达和巴基斯坦各级政府在道路安全方面的预算支出分别为人均0.09美元和0.07美元。
讨论
乌干达和巴基斯坦在道路安全方面的公共活动规模极其有限。如果道路安全投资存在规模收益递减，这将表明正确选择的安全措施的潜在效果可能永远不会更高。
结论
如果扩大道路安全投资，发病率和死亡率可能会大幅降低。
