About Road Safety Council
Building on the work of its predecessor, the Standing Conference on Road Safety established in 1973, the Road Safety Council (the Council) came into being in 1983 as a government advisory body to promote road safety in Hong Kong. The Council is chaired by the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Operations), with official members from seven government bureaux and departments, and non-official members drawn from a wide spectrum of society including the automobile, logistics, medical, insurance, education sectors, etc. The Council is committed to reducing the number and severity of traffic accidents in Hong Kong by formulating road safety initiatives and undertaking education and publicity programmes to encourage everyone to take up responsibility to ensure the safety of every road user.

About The Competition
Road Safety Council aims to leverage cross-disciplinary teaching trends STEAM (i.e. Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) and smart city concepts to guide primary and secondary students to examine daily road safety situations in Hong Kong.
Using innovative perspectives and STEAM knowledge and skills, students are encouraged to propose practical improvement solutions to reduce traffic accidents and their severity.
