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,
