AGING ROAD USER STRATEGIC SAFETY PLAN

To help achieve our mission, the Safe Mobility for Life
Coalition has developed a safety plan that focuses on six
key focus areas and their goals:

1. Aging in Place: Promote design features that
support lifelong communities and safe mobility for all
road users

2. Licensing and Enforcement: Educate and promote
resources for law enforcement and licensing
personnel.

3. Outreach and Advocacy: Provide information and
resources that promote the mission of the Coalition
to public officials, community stakeholders and aging
road users.

4. Prevention and Assessment: Promote driver fitness,
early recognition of at-risk drivers, and aging road
user mobility through prevention and intervention
resources.

5. Program Management, Data, and Evaluation: Lead,
coordinate, and evaluate Coalition programs and
activities using a data driven approach that identifies
needs and determines measurable outcomes.

6. Transitioning from Driving: Empower individuals
considering transitioning away from driving through
identification of viable transportation options.

With this safety plan, we are trying to strike a balance
between safety and mobility to help aging Floridians
maintain independence and remain active in their
community even when driving is no longer a safe option.
