Rodney E. Slater Secretary of Transportation, U. S. Department of
Transportation know many of you have traveled great distances to be
here. I To me, that shows not only your dedication to the cause,
but demonstrates how very important transportation safety is
becoming throughout the world. So I am very thankful to the main
organizers of this third annual conference -- all of whom are from
Sweden: Dr. Hans von Holst of the Royal Institute of Technology;
Dr. Ake Nygren of the Karolinska Institute; Dr. Ake E. Andersson of
the Institute for Futures Studies; and finally, Dr. Arne Witt16v
and Lars Anell from AB Volvo. And let me give a special welcome to
our friends from Africa. I will be visiting a number of African
nations in January. And while my main mission is to promote trade
and investment with the United States, we will be talking about
safety, too. Airline safety, for example, is a big concern, as
Africa grows and prospers and the demand for air travel expands. We
discussed it during recent meetings of the International Civil
Aviation Organization in Montreal several weeks ago. And we will do
so again during my trip. plan to talk about how my department can
help the Also, we many nations of Africa improve highway safety.
Africa relies heavily on road transportation. But highway
fatalities are very high. And the economic costs are very steep,
especially for Africa's fragile, emerging v market economies.
