Vision Zero ND

Vision Zero ND VISION ZERO. Zero fatalities. Zero excuses. The mission is to eliminate fatalities and serious injuries caused by motor vehicle crashes.

The Vision Zero strategy aims to establish a culture of personal responsibility where motor vehicle fatalities and serious injuries are recognized as preventable and not tolerated. Every driver and vehicle occupant in North Dakota can help meet the Vision Zero goal by taking personal responsibility when traveling on the road. This means wearing a seat belt at all times, transporting children in ch

ild passenger safety seats appropriate for the child’s age, weight and height, driving distraction-free, driving sober (i.e. not under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs), and obeying all posted speed limits. Posting Policy:

Hello, September! 🍂

New month. New season. Same goal.

September is also Distracted Driving Enforcement Month across North Dakota. A quick glance at your phone can have lifelong consequences. Keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.

A few extra seconds of focus can make all the difference. Let's make September a safe one, North Dakota. 💛

100% preventable. That is the truth behind every impaired driving crash. 🛑

A few weeks ago, Vision Zero headed to the ballpark again to recognize southeastern North Dakota’s DUI Enforcement All-Stars during a special pregame ceremony before the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks took on the Sioux Falls Canaries. ⚾

When someone chooses to drive impaired, every person on the road is put at risk, and the consequences can reach far beyond one vehicle.

A huge thank you to these deserving law enforcement officers for their service, sacrifice, and commitment to impaired driving enforcement! Their dedication helps save lives, spare families from unimaginable tragedy, and make our roads safer for everyone.

DUI Enforcement All-Star Night in Fargo was kindly sponsored by Laney's.

During Harwood Elementary School's recent Back to School Night, students did more than visit their classrooms! They also had the opportunity to check out emergency vehicles, visit with local first responders, and create their very own tie-dye t-shirts.

The best part of the t-shirts? They feature a VERY important message: Harwood Huskies Always Buckle Up!

This activity was generously sponsored by Applied Digital and was made possible through hands-on support from the Cass County Sheriff's Office, West Fargo Police Department, Harwood Fire/Rescue, Sanford Ambulance, and North Dakota Highway Patrol.

A big thank you to everyone who helped us kick off the school year with some creativity, community, and the reminder to always wear your seat belt! Every seat. Every trip. Every time.

One of our coordinators is currently at Kidz in Motion, an international conference focused on child passenger safety and keeping kids safe on the road!

And this year is the biggest one yet, with 44 states, 4 territories, and 7 countries represented! 🌎

We’re learning, connecting, and bringing new child passenger safety knowledge back to our North Dakota communities!

The school buses are back, and so are the morning commutes!

Consider this your back-to-school road refresher: slow down, stay alert and stop for flashing red lights.

Safe roads are always in style. 😎🚌✨

When a school bus stops with its red lights flashing and stop arm extended, all traffic must stop.
