Safe Speeds Save Lives
As summer travel picks up, FMCSA reminds drivers, carriers, and safety partners that controlling your speed can save lives. Higher speeds reduce reaction time, lengthen stopping distances, and can increase crash severity, especially for large trucks and buses.
Encourage drivers in your network to maintain a safe speed by downloading and sharing our many resources—including social media graphics, talking points, audio spots, and more.
Visit the speed campaign resources page to download the full toolkit and share these life-saving materials across your network.

 More Speed Prevention Resources from NHTSA
FMCSA's resources focus on safe driving behaviors for commercial motor vehicle drivers, while our partners at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration provide resources for passenger vehicle drivers and other everyday road users. No matter what you drive, maintaining a safe speed helps protect everyone on our nation's roads.

 New Education & Enforcement Resources
Every day, professional drivers make decisions that help keep America's roads safe. But unsafe behaviors—like texting while driving, speeding, and violating work zone laws—put everyone at risk and can lead to serious consequences.
To support law enforcement and safety partners, FMCSA has developed a new suite of education and enforcement campaign resources that reinforce a simple but critical message: safe driving isn't optional—it's the law and part of being a professional driver.
Explore the new resources and help share them with your network.
