7 Vision Enable Sweden to reach world leading competitiveness, by Providing countermeasures to considerably reduce both the number of traffic accidents and the number of fatalities and serious injuries Using the multi-disciplinary scientific competence available within the Centre. Making the Centre a hub for excellence within the international field of vehicle safety.
