Our vision - "Saving lives through traffic safety efforts." We believe that saving lives on California roadways calls for more than just a reduction in fatalities. Our vision is to eliminate traffic fatalities altogether. Every one fatality counts, every one is one too many. The California Office of Traffic Safety`s mission is to effectively and efficiently administer traffic safety grants while fostering partnerships to deliver innovative programs that reduce traffic deaths, injuries, and economic losses. The California Office of Traffic Safety provides funding for programs involving drunk and drugged driving, seat belt usage, child safety seats, motorcycle safety, bicycle safety, pedestrian safety, older drivers, teen drivers, emergency medical services, distracted driving, speeding, red light running and other traffic safety issues. Our latest campaign, Go Safely is a resource to help Californians to get to where they are going, safely and easily. As Californians, let`s set the pace for the rest of the world. Take a look around and take the knowledge you learn back to your homes and communities; share it with those you love. Let`s pave a new road to traveling safely, together. It`s a busy world out there and we`re all in it together. Go Safely California.
