Fair Share for Safety
While bicyclists and
pedestrians are major users of our roads and
sidewalks, states do little to protect their
safety in the same way that they do for drivers.
A Fair Share for Safety program would ensure
that transportation systems spend federal money
dedicated to safety programs to protect
bicyclists and pedestrians as well as automobile
users.
A provision in the Senate
transportation reauthorization bill S. 1072 will
improve the safety of the most vulnerable of
road users: those on foot, in wheelchairs and on
bicycles. The House bill, H.R.3, does not
include 'Fair Share' language.June 9, 2005
