The SS4A program supports the Department’s comprehensive approach, laid out in the National Roadway Safety Strategy , to significantly reduce serious injuries and deaths on our Nation’s highways, roads, and streets and is part of our work toward an ambitious long-term goal of reaching zero roadway fatalities.
