Safer Journey - FHWA Safety

  • Safer Journey is an interactive CD that takes the user through various pedestrian safety scenarios encountered every day across America. It has been developed to improve the level of pedestrian knowledge for all road users (including schools, driver education groups, enforcement, etc.) and safety practitioners. This CD-ROM can also be included in State/local community pedestrian awareness materials kit and/or used at seminars, conferences, etc.
