Strategies

Distribute Naloxone to trained community members and first responders to reverse opioid overdoses

Allow law enforcement officials to stop drivers solely for failing to use a seat belt

Repeal government control over retail sales of alcoholic beverages, allowing commercial retailing of those beverages

Attach metal bars, frames, or crush proof cabs to a tractor that provide a safety zone for an operator in the event of a rollover or overturn

Adopt laws that hold private property owners who provide alcohol to minors or obviously intoxicated individuals on their property liable if someone is killed or injured as a result

Strengthen laws that allow young drivers to gain driving experience in stages; often includes passenger and nighttime driving limitations and higher minimum ages for learner’s permits, intermediate, and full licenses

Modify the built environment to affect traffic speed and patterns via speed humps, pedestrian center crossing islands, roundabouts, etc.

Require all motorcycle operators and passengers to wear a helmet; laws are established statewide and may also include mopeds and scooters
