Vince and Larry
This week, we are recapping 50 years of highway safety, and are starting with a classic… Cheers to a couple of dummies who taught us the importance of seat belts.
Traffic Safety: Working with Partners to Keep Roads Safe
Our mission is to save lives and prevent injuries on America’s roads, but we don’t do it alone. Since NHTSA was founded in 1970 we’ve partnered with 100s of stakeholders to help execute our mission. We’d like to take time to thank our essential safety partners for their past and future work to keep our Nation's roads safer.
SaferCar App
We’re making checking your vehicle for safety recalls even easier. The new SaferCar app allows users to save their vehicles, car seats, or other equipment in a virtual garage. The app will alert you if a recall is issued. Learn more: nhtsa.gov/app #CheckForRecalls
MADD
They’ve all served as presidents of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), but rarely do these mothers – and a father – get the opportunity to gather together to share their stories at once. Each president’s life has been changed because of a drunk or drug-impaired driver.

Move Over
Protect those who protect you. If you see first responders pulled over with their lights flashing, slow down, and if you can do so safely, #MoveOver. Not only is it the right thing to do, it’s the law.
School Bus Safety
Did you know that the greatest risk to a child isn’t riding a bus, but approaching or leaving one? STOP means STOP! 🛑 As you’ll see in this video, it’s just not a bus you’re stopping for, it’s a bus full of students.
Kiss me! I’m sober!
