Minnesota Safety Council: Traffic

The most dangerous thing we do every day is get in our cars and drive. Roadway crashes are the single largest cause of injury death in Minnesota and of work-related deaths. Reduce your risk through driver training and community traffic safety programs and resources, including:

Defensive driving training and resources for employees, professional drivers and young drivers, including online training
Consultation on traffic safety policies, fleet safety, compliance with DOT regulations and additional education and awareness materials through the Minnesota Network of Employers for Traffic Safety
Preventing Distracted Driving: Comprehensive Resources for Employers
Printed guides for seasoned drivers and drivers of all ages (Get There! and StreetSmarts)
Community-based defensive driving training, with insurance discount for those age 55 and older
Information and education about child car seats, seat belts, bicycles, pedestrian safety
Education about highway-rail grade crossings and around tracks through Minnesota Operation Lifesaver, Inc.
