In this Road Safety @ Rush Hour Podcast episode, Bryan Delaney is joined by Lisa Robinson, Senior Program Manager, Transportation Safety at the National Safety Council to discuss distracted driving and the Road To Zero Movement (RTZ).
The Road to Zero Coalition, managed by the National Safety Council, laid out strategies to end roadway deaths in the U.S. by 2050. It is the first time so many organizations have collaborated to put forth a plan to address motor vehicle fatalities, which recently increased after years of decline. Delaney and Robinson discuss this initiative's success as well as provide answers to the questions of skeptics.
