create focused, high-impact educational materials for all age groups.
Introduction
The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety is a not-for-profit, publicly supported charitable research and education organization dedicated to saving lives through research and education. Since 1947, the Foundation has funded over 135 research projects designed to discover the causes of traffic crashes, prevent them, and minimize injuries when they do occur. The AAA Foundation is interested in a broad spectrum of traffic safety issues, but current priority areas include: Child Passenger Safety, Teen Driver Safety, Truck Safety, Distracted Driving, Senior Driving issues, and Drinking and Driving. Proposals to evaluate new or existing traffic safety initiatives are preferred over proposals to test abstract research hypotheses. As a matter of policy, the Foundation does not fund research to develop new devices nor to evaluate proprietary technologies. Nor does it make grants for community "action initiatives" or other purely local traffic safety programs.
