Toughest Laws Around Washington State's new drunk driving laws are some of the toughest enforced anywhere in the United States. The new laws lower the legal blood alcohol limit, increase penalties for driving drunk, and change the way this state treats drunk drivers. This pamphlet describes these new laws which took effect either June 1, 1998 or January 1, 1999. Alcohol Limit: .08: A new Washington law lowers the legal blood alcohol level from .10 to .08. Beginning January 1, 1999, drivers with a blood-alcohol concentration (BAC) at .08 or above can be arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol. A BAC measures the ratio of alcohol to blood and is measured by a test of a driver's breath or blood. BAC levels are determined by the number of drinks consumed in an hour, a person's body weight, and gender. Females will reach a higher BAC faster than males because females are generally smaller and have higher ratios of body fat to body fluids which makes them about 10 percent more susceptible to the effects of alcohol than males. In general, a 140 pound woman will reach a .08 BAC after three drinks in an hour and a 170 pound man will reach a .08 BAC after four drinks in an hour, (see chart, left). During a two-hour time period a 140 pound woman will exceed a .08 BAC after four drinks and a 170 pound man will reach a .08 BAC after five drinks.

Talking Points - Operation ABC Mobilization Law Enforcement Talking Points for the November 2001 Operation ABC Mobilization With more travelers expected to drive rather than fly this Thanksgiving, the [LOCAL AGENCY] is one of thousands of law enforcement agencies participating in a nationwide crackdown to keep America’s roads safe by stepping up enforcement of seat belt, child passenger and drunk driving laws. Operation ABC Mobilization , which stands for: A merica B uckles Up C hildren will begin on Nov. 19 and continue through the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Officers will be looking for drivers who drink and drive and drivers who fail to buckle up children – often these are the same people. According to the National Safety Council, the Thanksgiving holiday is one of the most dangerous holidays for motorists. Last year alone, more than 400 people were killed during the Thanksgiving week. And this year the Council is predicting even more deaths on our roadways because of the increased traffic. While our nation does everything it can to protect families from the unpredictable threat of terrorism, we must continue to address the most predictable and leading risk our families face every day – traffic crashes.

Driver Safety NSC Home Driver Safety Article How State Laws Prevent Young-Driver Tragedies by Al Karr The pattern is all too familiar. An auto packed with teenage joyriders spins out of control one night on the highway. The aftermath is much more devastating than mangled metal and broken glass. People are dead. You read about it in your local newspaper. The combination of youth, inexperience, alcohol, darkness and heightened excitement can be deadly. But increasingly, and with great speed, states are doing something about it. So-called graduated driver licensing, or GDL, laws phase-in teenage driving privileges during the course of two or more years. The laws promise to take control of the early driving experience and to reduce significantly the death toll from crashes that involve young drivers. States in this country began to enact GDL laws in 1996 based on similar laws enacted since 1994 in Canada and New Zealand. At recent count, 31 states and the District of Columbia had passed full-scale graduated licensing laws, 21 of them effective since the start of 1999, including Washington, West Virginia, Idaho, Tennessee, and Washington, D.C. About a dozen others have enacted piecemeal GDL laws. "It has been remarkable that so many states have acted so rapidly," said Steve Blackstone, director of state and local relations for the National Transportation Safety Board, which investigates transportation crashes.

Cycling Presentation - Introduction to "BikeEd" by Fred Oswald, LCI #947 Bicycle safety involves much more than a good helmet and some reflectors. It requires knowing how to think and act as the competent driver of a vehicle. The "BikeEd" program, sponsored by the League of American Bicyclists, teaches safe handling concepts and skills to enhance the safety and enjoyment of every ride. These are the safest and most efficient methods for operating a bicycle. There is much more to it than what you learned as a kid. BikeEd instructor Fred Oswald offers a 40-60 minute seminar that describes the safest and most effective methods for operating a bicycle. This program explains what is missing and what is wrong in traditional "Bike Safety" programs. The real cycling hazards and how to avoid them. Principles of traffic law and how they apply to cycling. "Bike Safety" myths and why they are wrong. Why wrong-way and sidewalk riding is dangerous. Bike lane and path hazards. Expert sources for cycling information. How to use four layers of safety.

TRAFFIC LAWS/SAFETY Bicycles are vehicles and are covered by DMV laws and regulations as well as local ordinances; e.g., you must come to a full stop at stop signs and signals. Bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as drivers of cars (BUT cars weigh 2000 pounds!) The safest way to bicycle is to do what you would do if you were driving a car. "Go with the flow." That way you fit in with what a driver expects you to do. Exceptions: Bikes must travel as close to the right hand side of the road as is safe; i.e, open car doors. Stay within the bike lane, 1-2 feet from curb, or 4 feet from parked cars. Watch for car doors being opened, cars pulling into traffic, etc. It is OK to be in the traffic lane if passing, not safe in the bike lane, and/or making a left turn. Single file normally; 2 abreast if wide bike lane or very quiet street. (Watch out for local ordinances/signs; e.g., Woodside.)

A SAFE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PEOPLE AND VEHICLES@-@AN APPEAL IS MADE TO DRIVERS AND PEDESTRIANS FOR SAFE AND PLEASANT URBAN TRANSPORTATION In recent years, automobile transportation has been significantly contributing to social and economic development, and improving the quality of our daily life. But, as the number of vehicles continues to increase, traffic conditions have been deteriorating as evidenced by traffic accidents, congestion, and air pollution. The MPD is working hard to improve the current situation. Implementation of driving and traffic safety classes by using the safe traffic campaign vehicle "Wakakusa," in which many people can participate and have 'hands on' experience to learn traffic safety. At traffic safety guidance centers, safety driving classes utilizing cars and rental training motorcycles are provided for infiltration of traffic safety consciousness into local colmTlunlties. The major factor which can achieve a decrease in traffic accidents, is the awareness and alertness of drivers and pedestrians in regard to traffic safety. Traffic laws and regulations must be fully kept and safe driving practiced. The MPD's Traffic Control Center has augmented it's operations and uses the most advanced and the largest computer operated traffic control system in the world. The center monitors congested areas and disseminates the estimated travel time information and controls the traffic signal system to ensure the smooth flow of traffic, and the safer and more pleasant urban transportation. Also, enforcement in the event of disasters such as major earthquakes, and securing safe traffic routes are handled by the center.

Original article at the JAMA website Motor-Vehicle Safety: A 20th Century Public Health Achievement The reduction of the rate of death attributable to motor-vehicle crashes in the United States represents the successful public health response to a great technologic advance of the 20th century the motorization of America. Six times as many people drive today as in 1925, and the number of motor vehicles in the country has increased 11-fold since then to approximately 215 million.1 The number of miles traveled in motor vehicles is 10 times higher than in the mid-1920s. Despite this steep increase in motor-vehicle travel, the annual death rate has declined from 18 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in 1925 to 1.7 per 100 million VMT in 1997a 90% decrease (Figure 1) Systematic motor-vehicle safety efforts began during the 1960s. In 1960, unintentional injuries caused 93,803 deaths1; 41% were associated with motor-vehicle crashes. In 1966, after 5 years of continuously increasing motor-vehicle-related fatality rates, the Highway Safety Act created the National Highway Safety Bureau (NHSB), which later became the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The systematic approach to motor-vehicle-related injury prevention began with NHSB's first director, Dr. William Haddon.2 Haddon, a public health physician, recognized that standard public health methods and epidemiology could be applied to preventing motor-vehicle-related and other injuries. He defined interactions between host (human), agent (motor vehicle), and environmental (highway) factors before, during, and after crashes resulting in injuries. Tackling problems identified with each factor during each phase of the crash, NHSB initiated a campaign to prevent motor-vehicle-related injuries.

Home Texas HighwayMan Pages : Little-Known Texas Traffic Laws www.texhwyman.com/laws.htm We've all seen it. We've probably all done it, too. The "it" I'm referring to is bad driving. Unfortunately, more and more, the offender knows what they're doing and doesn't care. However, in most cases, the bad driver isn't even aware that they're doing anything wrong and would alter their behavior if they knew the problems they were causing. That is the intention of this page. After a decade of driving the streets and freeways of San Antonio on a regular basis, I have compiled a list of what I consider to be the most-violated traffic laws and good driving practices. Hopefully, enough people will read this and modify their driving accordingly resulting in a safer and more pleasant driving experience for all of us. Whenever applicable, I've quoted the Texas Transportation Code . The citation for these is highlighted and the actual text of the law is in yellow italics Wherever you see "[...]" in my legal citations, that means I've ommited non-applicable sections of the law. Wherever you see the term "operator" in the law, it is referring to you, the operator of a motor vehicle. After the legal citation, I've included my own comments to help explain the law and its intent. In addition to the little-known laws, I've also included several good driving habits that I've learned over the years driving and observing all over the US and Europe. I believe that if more people adopted these habits, traffic flow and safety would be greatly improved.
