As states and localities adopt a vision of zero traffic fatalities, greater attention is being given to communication, collaboration, leveraging resources, and applying a systemic approach to traffic safety which requires a change in culture among road users and traffic safety agencies. This change in culture is tied to education, engineering, enforcement, and emergency services.
NCHRP Research Report 1091: Traffic Safety Culture Research Roadmap, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, presents a research roadmap for promoting traffic safety culture among state departments of transportation and other transportation safety agencies.
Supplemental to the report are NCHRP Web-Only Document 382: Traffic Safety Culture: Conduct of Research Report, a communication briefing, a process management briefing, and a research briefing.
