Abstract Strategic Highway Safety Plans (SHSP) are a true success story. Since these plans were first required by legislation in 2005, traffic fatalities have dramatically declined. In fact, over the past 10 years there has been a reduction of nearly 25 percent in the number of fatalities on our Nation’s roadways.1 One of the key reasons SHSPs succeed is effective leadership. Strong leaders have drawn attention to the complex safety problems that afflict our nation’s roadways. Leaders also are instrumental in establishing a statewide safety culture and turning the priorities and strategies in SHSPs into reality.
