N2  - The main aims of the New Car Assessment Program in Korea (KNCAP) established by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in 1999 are to provide information on vehicle safety performances; develop competition in vehicle categories with a star rating system; as well as providing safety scores to the consumer who intends to buy a new vehicle in order to help in buying a safer vehicle. The second intention is a driving force to promote the auto makers to build the best and safest vehicles that they can. These philosophies are believed to be one of the most effective vehicle safety policies in reducing the social cost and physical (lives and property) loss in the event of traffic accidents.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
