Safe Driving

Every day, thousands of Americans are involved in motor vehicle crashes that result in injury or death. In fact, motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of death in the U.S. At the CDC Injury Center, we research the best ways to prevent injuries, applying science for real-world solutions to keep people safe, healthy, and productive. We focus on improving car seat & booster seat and seat belt use, reducing impaired driving, and helping groups at risk: child passengers and teen drivers.
