Just last year 90 people died walking or cycling on our Virginia roadways. In addition, 716 cyclists and 1,696 pedestrians were injured. A single death or injury is one too many. Increasing knowledge of roadway regulations and safe behaviors may help reduce those numbers.

DRIVE SMART VIRGINIA and BikeWalk Virginia, are working together to help improve understanding and create awareness of ways to reduce roadway injuries and fatalities. Funding for the awareness campaign is being provided by the Virginia Highway Safety Office at DMV. September 13-20, 2009 is Virginia’s first Cycling and Pedestrian Awareness Week.

When all users of the transportation system know the law and respect their mutual rights and responsibilities, sharing the road is safe and predictable.
