Statement on National Stop on Red Week 2022

Advocates commends National Coalition for Safer Roads (NCSR) President Melissa Wandall for her ongoing efforts to raise awareness about the dangers posed by red light running and the need to advance proven solutions to curb this persistent threat on our roadways. In 2020, 928 people were killed in red light running crashes, half of which were pedestrians, bicyclists and people in vehicles other than the vehicle running the red light. Red light running is a serious issue in need of substantiated solutions.

Statement Opposing Legislation to Stop Impaired Driving Prevention Technology Rulemaking

Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety (Advocates) strongly opposes legislation introduced by U.S. Senators Mike Rounds (R-SD), Mike Braun (R-IN) and John Cornyn (R-TX), S.4647*, that would eliminate one of the most important safety provisions in the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA, Pub. L. 117-58). The IIJA, which was signed into law last November, directs the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to issue a rule requiring impaired driving prevention technology in new passenger motor vehicles by 2024. Research by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) finds that such technology could save more than 9,000 lives every year if widely deployed. S.4647 would halt progress toward requiring this lifesaving technology as standard equipment and must be rejected by Congress.

Advocates Urges Swift Implementation of Vehicle & Roadway Safety Measures in Letter to U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure

The safety advances included in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and continued action on other Congressionally mandated safety countermeasures must be implemented by the U.S. DOT in a comprehensive and expeditious manner.

Statement on National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) Final Rule on Rear Underride Guards for Trailers and Semi-Trailers

Today the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced a final rule on safety standards for rear underride guards for trailers and semi-trailers. The result of the rulemaking process, which was initiated in 2015, is a completely inadequate standard that will make road users less safe and undermines the Biden Administration’s stated goal of working towards zero roadway deaths.
