Summary
This bill amends Title 23, United States Code, to expand the Highway Safety Improvement Program , ensuring that safety improvements consider occupants and pedestrians associated with disabled vehicles. It also modifies the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to specifically include roadside and work zone deaths in injury health data collection. Furthermore, public awareness campaigns for "Move Over or Slow Down" laws are broadened to protect motorists, disabled vehicles, workers, and equipment in work zones. To address these safety concerns, the legislation establishes two new working groups: a Disabled Vehicle Crash Working Group and a Work Zone Crash Working Group . These groups, comprising various stakeholders, are tasked with collecting detailed crash data, developing strategic plans for injury prevention, and improving data sharing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Finally, the bill requires the Federal Highways Administration to submit an annual report to Congress detailing the use and effectiveness of work zone safety contingency funds by states.
