The countries compared in the study include Egypt, Turkey, the United States, Australia, Sweden, England, Norway, Denmark, and Iran. These countries were selected based on their successful experiences and positive indicators in the field of research. Valid databases and other related sources were used to collect data. In this study, the findings were compared using a comparative table.
Results: Findings indicated that the incidence of traffic accidents is higher among men than women. Additionally, the incidence rate was highest in Iran and lowest in Norway. The results also showed that organizations and institutions such as the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health and Medical Education, the Ministry of Interior, the National Broadcasting Agency, the Traffic Police, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Finance, and the Ministry of Welfare play the most crucial role in the pre-accident, during-accident, and post-accident phases.
Conclusions: Based on the research findings, it is recommended to develop and implement an integrated model of inter-departmental cooperation to prevent and manage traffic accidents, aiming to decrease casualties and enhance road safety in Iran.
