Highways Voices: Jo Shiner on the Road Safety Crisis and How to Fix It

This week on Highways Voices, the podcast focuses on road safety because, despite having some of the safest roads globally, road deaths in the UK have plateaued, and efforts to reduce them, through enforcement, awareness, and education, aren’t achieving meaningful impact.

Sussex Police Chief Constable Jo Shiner, who’s head of Britain’s roads policing, joins the podcast and gives an insight into her thoughts on keeping our roads safe, and indeed making them safer.

She explains why a National Road Safety Board and collision investigation system could revolutionise how fatalities are tackled, gives her views on how emerging enforcement technologies like AI-powered cameras and in-vehicle sensors could eliminate risky behaviour before it becomes fatal, and discusses the cultural and legislative shifts needed to elevate road safety from afterthought to national priority.
