More Cities Prove “Vision Zero” Is Achievable as DEKRA Honors Detmold for Road Safety Leadership

SHERIDAN, WYOMING - November 28, 2025 - As urban mobility systems evolve and traffic volumes rise, new data from DEKRA's Road Safety Report 2025 show that "Vision Zero" - the target of eliminating road fatalities and serious injuries - is already a reality in hundreds of cities worldwide, with the German city of Detmold now receiving the DEKRA Vision Zero Award 2025 for its outstanding performance.

Vision Zero Moves from Utopia to Measurable Reality

"Vision Zero" - the goal of zero traffic fatalities or, ultimately, serious injuries - is not unattainable. Hundreds of cities around the world have achieved zero road fatalities in at least one calendar year since 2009, according to official national statistics. Among them are now several with around 300,000 inhabitants. The DEKRA Vision Zero Award for the best performance among cities over 50,000 inhabitants has been presented to the German city of Detmold.
