Agendas
The strategic goal of the KFV is to create added value through comprehensive prevention work. In order to achieve this goal, the KFV not only cooperates closely with political decision-makers, but also with many large commercial companies. The KFV implements studies and projects for you and with you, develops campaigns and strategic partnerships. And the leadership in the area of prevention enables the KFV and its partners to position these initiatives in a publicly effective manner.
Due to the non-partisan organizational form, the KFV also has good contacts to the ministries and legislative bodies and thus has a great influence on the legislation in road traffic law, such as the road traffic regulations.
The association publishes the accident report in Austria every year . Accordingly, most accidents (exactly 308,300) happened in the household in 2018. Then there are leisure accidents (280,400).
