The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) organizes several commercial motor vehicle events throughout the year, including Operation Safe Driver Week which occurs this year on July 9-15.
Operation Safe Driver Week is a safe-driving awareness and outreach initiative aimed at improving the driving behaviors of passenger vehicle drivers and commercial motor vehicle drivers through educational and traffic enforcement strategies and interactions with law enforcement.
The focus area for this year’s Operation Safe Driver Week is speeding because it remains a persistent problem on our roadways. Speeding increases the frequency and severity of crashes, and unsafe speeds are a well-documented factor in fatalities and injuries.
