Colorado to Join ‘Zero Deaths’ Traffic Safety Plan
Colorado is signing on to a national effort to reduce traffic deaths dramatically – all the way to zero.
Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper plans to tout the effort Monday afternoon at the Capitol.
Six years ago the national Governors Highway Safety Association issued a plan “Toward Zero Deaths.”
Earlier this year, the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reported that the chances of a driver dying in a crash in a late-model car or light truck fell by more than a third over three years,. Nine car models had zero deaths per million registered vehicles.
