What is Lifesavers? (back to top)
Celebrating 30 Years of Delivering Solutions to Today’s Critical Highway Safety Problems
Lifesavers is the premier national highway safety meeting in the United States dedicated to reducing the tragic toll of deaths and injuries on our nation’s roadways. Drawing nearly 2,000 participants in 2011, Lifesavers continues to be the essential conference since its start in the early 1980s. Each year, the Lifesavers Conference provides a forum that delivers relevant and timely common-sense solutions to today’s critical highway safety problems.
The conference addresses a wide range of safety topics, from child passenger safety and occupant protection to roadway and vehicle safety and technology. It offers the latest information on advances in highway safety, highlights successful programs and draws attention to emerging safety issues.
