China is currently the biggest automobile manufacture market with more than 130 million automobiles as of 2013. However,road safety is still a big concern.
AIG's strategic agreement with CASS includes a series of research around road safety in China. Results of the studies will be released to the public on regular basis.

In 2013,AIG launched Road Safety Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives in China,which focuses on educating thousands of primary school students on the importance of road safety.
In 2014 and beyond,AIG will continue with these efforts and introduce more interactive and experimental programs with high-tech devices to the Chinese society to enhance road safety awareness,said Zheng.
