State of Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities. Federal Fiscal Year 2010. Alaska Highway Safety Office Annual Report

摘要

The authors mission is to enhance the health and well being of the people of Alaska through programs that save lives and prevents injuries on Alaska's highways. They provide federal transportation dollars and state safety corridor court fines to data driven programs that encourage safe driving behavior. The education and enforcement of impaired driving and seat belt laws remain our first two priorities, followed by aggressive driving, red light running, young drivers, safety corridors, and distracted driving. Educational programs which focus on distracted driving and young drivers have been expanded and the enforcement of the traffic laws within our safety corridors has been increased. These priorities were determined through an analysis of traffic crashes, including fatalities and serious injuries, enforcement efforts, survey results and demographic information. These multiple databases identify high-risk groups and dangerous locations.
