All of the OIC member countries are in the establishment or growth phase, based on both the
relationship between road safety performance and economic development and the road safety
characteristics per road safety development phase, as established in 13. Some OIC
member countries, notably the LICs and the countries that score low on the Safe Systems
Approach, as established in Chapter 7, are in the establishment phase. For example, Gambia and
Togo have high mortality rates and score relatively low on the five road safety pillars and
development and use of road safety data14.
13 As argues above, some OIC member countries have advanced well towards a Safe Systems Approach, but
given the fact that these countries have not yet developed an integrated approach across all pillars
sufficiently, the countries are not yet in the maturity phase.
14 The five road safety pillars are rated in Chapter 7, mainly based on information provided in the annual WHO
global status of road safety reports.
