聯合國秘書長關于啟動道路安全行動十年的致辭
2011年5月11日
The launch today of the Decade of Action for Road Safety can help all countries drive along the path to a more secure future.
今天啟動的道路安全行動十年可以幫助各國循道駛向更安全的未來。
Road crashes kill nearly 1.3 million people every year, and leave millions more injured or permanently disabled. Impaired driving, unsafe roads and other dangers shatter lives in a matter of seconds.
道路交通事故每年造成近130萬人死亡,數百萬人受傷或終身殘疾。酒后駕駛、不安全的道路和其他危險可在瞬間毀滅生命。
The Decade can help thwart this needless loss of life.
行動十年將有助于減少這種不必要的生命損失。
I call on Member States, international agencies, civil society organizations, businesses and community leaders and people everywhere to ensure that the Decade leads to real improvements.
我呼吁各會員國、國際機構、民間社會組織、工商界和社區領袖以及各地民眾確保行動十年產生真正的改善。
The Global Plan of Action for Road Safety is our collective map. It covers critical areas for action – from enhancing roads and vehicles to improving the behaviour of drivers, motorcyclists and pedestrians.
道路安全全球行動計劃是我們的集體路線圖,涵蓋了一批重要的行動領域——從增強道路和車輛的安全性能到改進司機、摩托車駕駛人和行人的行為都包括在內。
Today, partners around the world are releasing national or citywide plans for the Decade, hosting policy discussions and enabling people affected by road crashes to share their stories widely. Now we need to move this campaign into high gear and steer our world to safer roads ahead.
今天,世界各地的伙伴們都在為行動十年發布全國或全市的計劃、主辦政策討論會并幫助受交通事故影響者廣泛傳播他們的經歷。我們現在需要把這場運動推向高潮,指引我們的世界走上更安全的前進道路。
Together, we can save millions of lives.
我們一道努力,就能拯救數以百萬計的生命。
