Description

Mental Health and Road Safety explores the psychological, behavioural, and social factors underlying the persistent occurrence of road accidents. Through a multidisciplinary perspective, the book introduces the concept of the “Going Syndrome” to explain the manifest and latent behavioural patterns that contribute to accident-prone road-user behaviour. Drawing on psychological and clinical research, it examines the causes of risky decision-making and proposes practical, evidence-informed interventions to help reduce preventable road accidents. Beyond clinical approaches, the book also presents administrative and policy recommendations aimed at strengthening road safety systems and promoting responsible road use. A valuable resource for psychologists, policymakers, road safety professionals, students, and the general public, this work offers fresh insights into one of today’s most pressing public health and transportation challenges.
