Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 1972 GAO report stated that more federal-aid construction funds should be used to improve highway safety. Although spending on highway safety increased from $100 million in 1971 to $1.1 billion in 1975, neither the Federal Highway Administration (FHwA) nor the states had assurance that the funds obligated were for projects offering the greatest safety benefits. The Highway Safety Act of 1966 required the states to establish systematic procedures for selecting safety construction projects. None of the eight states GAO reviewed had fully met this requirement. Furthermore, FHwA had not developed adequate procedures to measure the states' progress in implementing their systems, and did not know what progress had been made or when the states would meet the spirit of the act. FHwA should: (1) work with each state to develop, monitor, and evaluate a project selection system; (2) require a plan with realistic time frames for implementation; (3) ensure that safety projects financed with regular and safety construction funds are selected through a systematic approach; and (4) fix a reasonable date by which safety projects are selected from inventories of cost-effective projects.

Committee for the Study of Traffic Safety Lessons from Benchmark Nations and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2011 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tool kit will vary among jurisdictions depending on basic legal constraints, community attitudes, road system and traffic characteristics, and resources. The Transportation Research Board (TRB) undertook a study to identify the sources of safety improvements in other countries. Researchers do not have a complete understanding of the underlying causes of long-term trends in crashes and fatalities. Differences among countries are in part attributable to factors other than government safety policies. To identify keys to success, the TRB study committee examined specific safety programs for which quantitative evaluations are available and relied on the observations of safety professionals with international experience. The committee's conclusions identify differences between U.S. and international practices that can account for some differences in outcomes. The committee recommendations, which are addressed to elected officials and to government safety administrators, identify actions needed in the United States to emulate the successes that other countries have achieved. The recommendations do not comprehensively address all aspects of traffic safety programs but rather address areas of practice that are highlighted by the international comparisons and for which credible evidence of effectiveness is available."--Pub. desc.
