Abstract This report provides a summary of the proceedings of the Road Safety Peer Exchange for Tribal Governments held in Albuquerque, New Mexico on December 9th and 10th, 2014. The peer exchange brought together safety practitioners from across the United States to facilitate the exchange of information on road safety and to explore opportunities for collaboration between tribes, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), State Departments of Transportation (DOT), Tribal Technical Assistance Program (TTAP) Centers and other government entities on tribal road safety and safety plans by tribes (see Appendix A for a complete list of attendees). The peer exchange covered the following key topics: • Strategies, challenges, and opportunities for reducing fatal and several injury crashes on tribal roads; • Developing and implementing safety plans by tribes; • Improving safety data and applying the systemic approach to safety; • Conducting road safety evaluations and road safety audits; • Addressing behavioral safety issues; and • Exploring new safety partnerships for tribes.
