The main subjects of this article include the field of industrial design and the Vision Zero strategy. Industrial design focuses on the creation of products and services based on the needs of users and producers, while also considering aspects such as quality of life and sustainability. Additionally, Vision Zero, as a new strategy aimed at enhancing safety, health, and welfare, could provide an effective framework for industrial design thinking. In this study, we aim to clarify the relationship between industrial design and Vision Zero. In this research, 68 industrial designers participated as the volunteers filled out our online 10-score questionnaires. Furthermore, some related articles were assessed based on the Scopus database. The assessment of the questionnaires revealed that most participants believe industrial design has a significant impact on health, safety, and environmental protection in both product and service design. The read articles and VOS viewer showed that some countries i.e. USA, Sweden, Germany, and Australia, were involved in the research conducted in the field of Vision Zero more than other communities. Considering the findings, it seems that to improve the industrial design scope based on the quality of life for all, making a synergy between industrial design, and Vision Zero on the context of sustainability is inevitable.

Background: Road Traffic injuries (RTIs) are major global health issues, but they have been neglected. RTIs are multi-faceted in nature and, like many injuries, are costly but preventable. Iran has one of the highest rates of deaths due to traffic accidents among middle-income countries. Hence, there is a need for effective and preventive approaches in road safety management. One of the new approaches to road safety is the Vision Zero. The aim of this study was to design a Vision Zero implementation model in Iran. Methods: This present study was conducted using the qualitative grounded theory approach. Purposive, snowball and maximum variety sampling were used to select participants. In-depth interviews were used to collect data. Grounded theory method was used to analyze the data using Corbin and Strauss method. Results: In this study, 19 interviews were conducted with 17 participants. Based on data analysis, a total of 4 main categories and 13 subcategories were obtained. According to the participants, the lead agency was recognized as the core category. Other concepts were categorized as causal conditions, intervening conditions, contextual conditions, action/interaction strategies, and consequences. Conclusions: Establishing a lead agency with inter-organizational coordination through political support and legislation and changing the approach of road safety can be effective in implementing a Vision Zero. Also, improving the safety attitude of the stakeholders and changing their approach through training and advocacy from various organizations related to road safety is effective in creating a lead agency and implementing a Vision Zero. In addition, in order to implementation of the model, it is very important to pay attention to the economic, political and ethical underlying factors towards human beings.

Background: Vision Zero is a public policy approach that aims to achieve a road traffic system with no fatalities or serious injuries caused by road traffic crashes (RTCs). Objective: This study aimed to investigate the history of Vision Zero's evolution and trends in road safety worldwide. Methods: This scoping review was conducted based on the Arksey and O’ Malley and the Joanna Briggs Institute framework. This framework consists of five steps: research question identification; identifying relevant studies; selection of study; data charting; gathering, summarizing, and reporting the results. Results: Finally, 37 articles met the inclusion criteria. The trending of deaths caused by RTCs in the countries implementing Vision Zero shows a decline. There is a intercountry variation with the most substantial decrease in Sweden. Conclusion: Vision Zero has had an evolutionary development in many countries. Due to the significant impact of the implementation of the Vision Zero, many countries are seeking to adopt or implement this approach. Although there are some challenges in implementing Vision Zero in different countries but based on its philosophy, there is a growing rate for implementing it in different settings.
