Why this petition matters

Inaction by federal traffic safety agencies, who are fiercely and disproportionately influenced by industry pressure, has left all road users at risk. A recent PBS/Frontline truck underride documentary has exposed the depth of this regulatory capture and the powerlessness of safety activists to bring about change.

It's time to turn the tide and demand that vulnerable victims of vehicle violence be given a vigilant voice at the table. It's time for a National Roadway Safety Advocate to serve the public's best interests at the Department of Transportation.
