WRI Brasil Cidades Sustentáveis has developed a legislative study on active transport and its relationship with road safety for children. This report documents the main findings of this study. Federal and municipal laws of cities with a population of more than 250,000 were considered. In addition, the process also included an analysis of the Senate and House bills, as well as the second instance decisions on the subject by the state courts of Rio Grande do Sul and Rio de Janeiro. This study aimed to identify good legislative practices and possible gaps concerning road safety for children. The conclusion is that the Brazilian legislation, in spite of providing for a comprehensive system for child protection, does not include road safety as a children's and youth right.
