Traffic Safety Countermeasures that Work in Rural Communities

Traffic Safety Countermeasures that Work in Rural Communities provides an introduction to behavioral traffic safety countermeasures for rural stakeholders interested in building capacity, forming partnerships, and addressing problems in their community. Designed as a rural supplement to the 11th edition of Countermeasures That Work, it features select speed, alcohol-impaired driving, and occupant protection countermeasures that may be relevant to rural communities. This resource is meant to be a tool for community engagement and greater involvement of non-traditional traffic safety partners.

This document was produced as a collaboration between the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Federal Highway Administration to develop concise resources that have the needs of rural communities in mind.
