Safe driving can be an international thing
The Global Road Safety Decade of Action working group met in Washington, D.C., on February 24, 2010.
You’re probably wondering, “what is the Global Road Safety Decade of Action?”
The goal of the working group (which also met in 2009) is to reduce the amount of road deaths in 2020 by 50 percent. The purpose of the group is to make sure that goal is obtained.
Attendees who attended last week’s meeting included people from the Governors Highway Safety Association, 3M, the U.S. Department of Transportation, Safe Kids Worldwide, YOURS – Youth for Road Safety, and Teens in the Driver Seat.

I’m glad that Teens in the Driver Seat is being recognized as an important program reducing the number of road deaths annually, and is now working together with other organizations to reach the 2020 goal.
