SAFE Driving Campaign

The California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (CalPOST) has undertaken a SAFE (Situation-Appropriate, Focused, and Educated) Driving Campaign to reduce the number of law enforcement officers (LEOs) killed and injured in traffic collisions. Research investigating causes and interventions related to LEO traffic collisions is a significant component of the campaign. The overall goal is to reduce fatal LEO collisions to a rate comparable with the general driving public. The primary benchmark, however, is to reduce fatal LEO collisions by 15% by 2015.
