Welcome!

Welcome to the Traffic Safety Guru blog. We hope that you return often as we look to discuss things that are going on in the realm of traffic safety. Each year in the U.S., over 30,000 people lose their lives on our highways. That is roughly the equivalent of a fully loaded 727 crashing every day. Imagine if we were to have a 727 crash EVERY SINGLE DAY...after about a week of that, the FAA would probably shut down air travel until they could figure out what was going on. But that is the level of carnage that we are experiencing on our roadways. Our desire is to bring that down.

And things only get worse when we look internationally: over one million people die each year in roadway crashes throughout the world.
