Victoria Police Road Policing Strategy
The Road Policing Strategy July 2021 to June 2024 has been developed in alignment with the Victorian Government Road Strategy 2020-2030 and the National Road Safety Strategy 2021-2030.
It represents a commitment from Victoria Police to our agreed “Towards zero" goals of:
- a 50% reduction of road fatalities and serious injuries by 2030
- zero deaths and serious injuries by 2050.
The Victorian Road Policing Strategy will guide decision making and investment through the lens of road safety.
It has been designed to translate high level strategy into operational priorities and includes explanations on the following seven areas of focus:
- high risk high harm driving
- rural roads
- speed
- impaired driving (drugs and alcohol)
- seatbelts and restraints
- distraction
- unauthorised drivers
