Next steps

Emerging focus areas

36

Vehicle passengers

•Children and adult restraint use (not just the driver); Passengers travelling in cargo areas of vehicles

Public health (separate from EMS)

•Trauma, Injury prevention

Within INFRASTRUCTURE: “Non-state maintained system”

•Counties, metropolitan areas, regions, cities, towns, tribal areas

Within VULNERABLE USERS: Older drivers

•Folded into vulnerable users but yet the issue is so big when combined with pedestrians, bicyclists and motorcyclists

Within INFRASTRUCTURE

•Addressing coordinated planning of multiple modes

•Moving beyond the pavement to linkage with livability, urban development, context etc. & dealing with the discussion in a sensitive way (there are many “connotations”.)

LEGAL & LAW ENFORCEMENT
