In this Special Issue, we encouraged authors to submit papers on road safety in LMICs for peer review. The four peer-reviewed papers cover:• Lack of pedestrian safety in Chennai, India;• Impact of density and urban design features on road safety outcomes in Bogota, Colombia• Availability and usage rates of seat belts in Malawi; and• Analyses of the context of speed management in Cambodia to improve implementation.In addition, we have three contributed articles:• Good practice road safety examples in LMICs;• Features of LMICs making road safety more challenging; and• Review of road safety management and infrastructure in Romania and recommended actions.We hope you find this Special Issue interesting and helpful in your work.
