You’ve heard of Sharing the Road, but have the rest of the drivers out there? NYBC is doing something about it!

We are delivering the Share the Road concept to Driver Education Classes and Driver Improvement Programs all over the state. No small task, NYBC has piloted a number of Point Insurance and Pre-Licensing Courses to test the effectiveness of the Share the Road module we have developed.

Thanks to the Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee, Mark Kulewicz of AAA, Jeff Olson of Trailblazer, the Long Island Non-Motorized Transportation Study and many others for helping to develop this module into an effective tool teaching many of the Driver Education teachers the finer points of sharing the road with bicyclists and pedestrians.

The goal of the project is to not only increase Share the Road awareness amongst motorized users, but effectively demonstrate to students how to be more effective pedestrians and bicyclists as well.

Education, pass it on!
