    Safety

    Pennsylvania is committed to continuously improving highway safety. One traffic fatality is one too many, and we are committed to reaching our ultimate goal of zero fatalities.

    Highway Safety in Pennsylvania

    PennDOT's multi-faceted approach to improving highway safety in Pennsylvania involves promoting behavioral programs and implementing infrastructure improvements. Behavioral programs include impaired and distracted driving campaigns, aggressive driving enforcement, seat belt and child restraint programs, and many other measures to encourage safer driving habits. We also make infrastructure improvements such as rumble strip installation, removing roadside obstructions, and intersection improvements (upgrading traffic signals, adding turning lanes, installing signage and pavement markings, pedestrian countdown timers, and more).

    The public can access commonly requested crash and fatality information as well as create their own custom searches with the Pennsylvania Crash Information Tool.
