Seattle’s plan to end traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030

Vision Zero is an approach to traffic safety, with an ultimate goal of ending traffic deaths and serious injuries. The idea began in Sweden in the 1990s, where they adopted it as national policy. At the core of Vision Zero is the belief that death and injury on city streets is preventable. For the most part, these aren’t “accidents.” Collisions are often the result of poor behaviors and unforgiving roadway designs. So we must approach the problem from multiple angles – street designs that emphasize safety, predictability, and the potential for human error, coupled with targeted education and data-driven enforcement efforts.

Each week we send thousands of consumers’ complaints about financial products and services to companies for response. Those complaints are published here after the company responds or after 15 days, whichever comes first. By adding their voice, consumers help improve the financial marketplace.

Vision Zero’s comprehensive approach to safety has contributed to crash reductions worldwide.

In September 2015, we sent out a survey to our customers with the goal of systematically assessing their goals, their usage, and their feedback on our products. Here is the summary of insights from 49 survey participants.
