Join a country to take part in treaties.

Preamble

This Accord establishes a coherent set of shared standards designed to protect human life, promote predictable and responsible road use, and support the development of a modern, safety‑focused transport culture.

The treaty provides a regulatory framework that any country may join, provided its laws meet all articles set out herein. The articles cover the core pillars of road safety: drink and drug driving rules, driver licensing and testing, mandatory protective equipment, speed limit policy, and the enforcement of traffic offences.

The purpose of this Accord is to reduce road accidents, encourage responsible driving behaviour, and create a transparent and consistent regulatory environment that serves the long‑term safety of all road users.
