Title: Safety on Florida Roads: The Target Zero Initiative
Speaker: Loreen Bobo, PE
Synopsis:
Safety on our roadways has always been a priority for the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). In the last few years FDOT has had a re-focus on safety because deaths are currently on the rise due to a combination of many factors. FDOT’s goal is zero, zero fatalities and serious injuries. Find out how FDOT is going to get to zero, and how you can help us get there.
