What’s with “Safe” Vehicles? How About “Safe Streets”? Free Webinar

Here’s the chance to hear from three outstanding individuals who are passionate about carving out a new “road map” to shared streets with zero serious accidents and deaths.

Join us in the third of our series “Acting with Urgency” to discuss how to effectively advocate for Safer Vehicles, a key component in the new National Roadway Safety Strategy and critical to advancing the goal of Vision Zero – safe mobility for all people. We’ll delve into questions that more of us are asking: What needs to change to address today’s situation of unsafe vehicles? Who is responsible for making changes? Why isn’t this happening already? What can we do to push for change?

Date: Wednesday, May 11, 2022.

Time:  10 am Pacific Time

Panelists include:

Angie Schmitt, Urban planner, the author of “Right of Way: Race, Class, and the Silent Epidemic of Pedestrian Deaths in America”;
David Zipper, Visiting Fellow at Harvard Kennedy School;
Tara Gill, Senior Director of Advocacy and State Legislation at Advocates for Highway & Auto Safety.
