Safety for Vulnerable Road Users
In the United States, more than 40,000 people per year are killed on our streets, roads, and highways. This number has been increasing for over a decade, with hundreds of thousands more lives that are changed in non- fatal crashes. The League of American Bicyclists and Transportation for America will discuss how the United States got to this point, what has been done to combat this trend so far, and how federal transportation policy can improve this epidemic of traffic violence.
