Traffic Safety prepared statements

Use the following statements in the appropriate circumstances:

“Minnesota is committed to Toward Zero Deaths, the cornerstone program aimed to reduce traffic related crashes in the state of Minnesota. Minnesota Toward Zero Deaths has been working for over 15 years with the mission to create a culture where traffic related deaths and injuries are no longer acceptable. The program has been effective in pushing for continuous improvement, creating long lasting partnerships involving the “Four Es” of traffic safety— Education, Enforcement, Engineering, and Emergency Medical Services—and implementing data driven solutions to traffic safety issues. A variety of stakeholders at the federal, state, county, and local levels are involved with Minnesota Toward Zero Deaths and include members from public agencies, private organizations, community groups, advocates and academia.” - 2020 Minnesota Strategic Highway Safety Plan
