Reversing Oregon's Rise in Deaths and Serious Injuries for Senior Drivers and Peds
项目名称: Reversing Oregon's Rise in Deaths and Serious Injuries for Senior Drivers and Peds
摘要: The objective of this research is to identify where there is an over-representation of serious crashes involving drivers and pedestrians age 65 and older, to conduct a review of best practices with a local and national eye, and to map the best practices and countermeasures to Oregon such that significant improvements to older driver and pedestrian safety result both in the short term and long term. The review of best practices and an inventory of Oregon�s practices will clearly help inform safety programs and policies. As with many initiatives, any efforts to improve the transportation system for aging drivers/pedestrians also will benefit all drivers/pedestrians. The proposed research directly addresses the Safety goal of ODOT's mission: engineering, educating and enforcing a safe transportation system. The research also addresses the Safety and Diversity values for the ODOT mission by contributing to the safety of our older population.
