Promoting Safe Mobility for Life
The Safe Mobility for Life Coalition is working hard to
help Florida’s aging road users, just like you, stay safe,
mobile, and active within their own community even if
driving is no longer a safe option.
Florida’s Safe Mobility for Life Coalition
To prepare to meet the challenges of the inevitable
increases to Florida’s aging population, the Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) partnered with
the Pepper Institute on Aging and Public Policy at
Florida State University reached out to other agencies
and organizations with responsibilities and interests in
aging road user safety and mobility to form a statewide
coalition. It is the goal of the Safe Mobility for Life
Coalition to improve the safety, access, and mobility of
older Floridians and to reduce their crash, fatality, and
injury rates.
To see a list of the Coalition’s member organizations,
please refer to page 78 in the Appendix.
