PROGRAM OVERVIEW FOR ESTABLISHING A YOUTH TRAFFIC SAFETY COUNCIL. MANUAL REPORT
Given the significant overinvolvement of young drivers in highway accidents and the important influence that young people have on the behavior of their peers, an organizational framework for youth activity in highway safety is greatly needed. The Program Overview was prepared specifically for State officials interested in establishing such a framework. The emphasis of the program recommended is on youth activity at the local level with the State providing support primarily through a network of communications and materials resources. The Program Overview contains a summary of the recommendations contained in the Implementation Guide. These recommendations relate to matters such as organization, the extent of State personnel and monetary support, State and regional conferences and specific activities that might be undertaken by local units. The recommendations are designed to be liberally interpreted and applied, depending upon the particular needs and desires of the individual States.
