A decade ago São Paulo suffered from 1,249 annual roadway deaths and 20 times as many injuries.
In mid-2015 , however, the death rate in the city plummeted by a third and stayed down.
The municipality simply cut speed limits, enforcing them with an existing system of cameras.
Brazil overall is not known for careful driving.
São Paulo used automated enforcement to produce one of the world’s quickest and largest drops in crashes, saving thousands of lives.
The Brazilian experience is an important example for the global Vision Zero movement.
The city and state governments have been investing heavily in transit infrastructure, but have not implemented substantial changes in street geometry.
