Mapping rural road risk
Oct 20, 2006 2:22 PM
The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, in collaboration with the Iowa and Michigan Departments of Transportation, has developed a new method for mapping the relative risk of rural roads in the U.S.
The stakeholders in the effort hope the initiative will help save thousands of lives, as 60% of all U.S. traffic fatalities occur on rural roads.
