The Committee on Transportation Safety Management (A3B01) is concerned with the development and coordination of integrated safety management programs to reduce death and injury on transportation systems. It focuses on the advancement of safety management systems, research and technology to improve safety, and models of safety delivery systems. Currently, the committee has three subcommittees working in these focus areas. They are Transportation Safety Management Systems, Truck and Bus Safety Research Management, and Road Safety Audit. This paper reviews the state of the practice for each of these focus areas.
