INTRODUCTION

The Mission of the Safe Driving Campaign, "Combat Aggressive Driving", is to Reduce fatalities and injuries related to POV accidents through new, innovative approaches to changing negative high risk behavior and traffic safety. We must raise the bar on safety to protect our most important resources-soldiers and their families-from tragedies related to POV accidents.

Safety is a command responsibility that cannot be delegated. It requires individual commitment and discipline.

America's families have entrusted us with their sons and daughters and everyone must take that responsibility seriously.

Knowing the standard and choosing to ignore it, momentary lapses in leadership, shortcomings in training and inadequate standards are the leading causes of accidents. To combat these conditions, effective leadership, well disciplined training plans, established standards, and sound risk management principles must be applied.

FORSCOM Commanders working in partnership with the American Institute for Public Safety will create and implement a variety of programs that will change the way people think, feel and behave behind the wheel of their POV leading to a reduction in fatalities and injuries and changing the culture of the driving community. The resources and programs listed in this brochure are at the disposal of each base's Command.
