摘要: In 2000, red light running in the U.S. accounted for approximately 106,000 crashes, 89,000 injuries, and 1,000 deaths. The cost to the public is estimated to be $8.5 billion/year. Additionally, more than 95% of drivers surveyed in 1998 by the National Stop Red Light Running Partnership said that they are concerned about the actions of other drivers when approaching an intersection. Yet, in a second national survey in 1999, 56% of Americans admitted to running red lights. To address this safety problem, the Federal Highway Administration established the Stop Red Light Running Program in 1995 as a community-based safety initiative. This article provides an overview of this effort and its aim to better educate drivers and focus on law enforcement.
