Safety Culture
In response to the voices of top experts and stakeholders from the traffic safety community, the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety has made a commitment to focus its research program on “traffic safety culture.”
To initiate work in this new program, and to ignite serious discussion and debate over traffic safety, we commissioned a series of thought-provoking research papers in the Spring of 2006 addressing “traffic safety culture” from a variety of perspectives. We hope that these papers will serve as a start along this new path.
