The Street Sense Organisation (SSO) is a Non-Governmental Organisation, which seeks to help bring sanity and safety on our roads and thus reduce deaths and destructions due to road accidents, by working along the 2ND UN DECADE OF ACTION FOR ROAD SAFETY – A BRIEF PLANNING DOCUMENT and its Framework for a Decade of Action (2021 to 2030) and along the National Road Policy of Ghana. The policies, long-term or strategic, and short term action plans of the Organisation are based on the two afore-mentioned documents.

By way of advocacy and research, we seek to support and advice Government, particularly the Ministry of Transport, through the National Road Safety Commission to: provide and review policy; promote road safety education and sensitization. Further we assist the appropriate agencies to ensure effective enforcement of rules and regulations specifically on the use of seatbelts, alcohol and drug uses, speed management, wrong overtaking, overloading, improving safety features of vehicles, road safety audit to ensure improvement in road construction; the provision of adequate and appropriate road signs and markings, as well as linking road safety to land use and transport planning.
