Aggressive DrivingAcknowledgmentsThis series of six implementation guides was developed under NCHRP Project 17-18(3). The project was managed by CH2M Hill. The co-principal investigators were Ron Pfefer of Maron Engineering and Kevin Slack of CH2M Hill. Timothy Neuman of CH2M Hill served as the overall project director for the CH2M HILL team. Kelly Kennedy Hardy, also of CH2M Hill, participated in development of the guides. This phase of the project involved the development of guide books addressing six different emphasis areas of AASHTO’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan. The project team was organized around the specialized technical content contained in each guide. The CH2M HILL team included nationally recognized experts from many organizations. The following team of experts, selected based on their knowledge and expertise in a particular emphasis area, served as lead authors for each of the guides.
Development of the guides utilized the resources and expertise of many professionals from around the country and overseas. Through research, workshops, and actual demonstration of the guides by agencies, the resulting document represents best practices in each emphasis area. The project team is grateful to the following list of people and their agencies for their input on the guides and their support of the project: American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety Bastrop, Texas, Police Department Ben Gurion University of the Negev California Department of Motor Vehicles California Department of Transportation City of Lubbock, Texas City of Winston-Salem, North Carolina Consultant Craven County, North Carolina, Sheriff’s Office CTTER Dallas Trees and Parks Foundation Delaware State Police Durham Police Department Federal Highway Administration Federal Highway Administration—Southern Resource Center Federal Highway Administration—Eastern Federal Lands Federal Highway Administration—Midwest Resource Center Florida Department of Transportation Georgia Institute of Technology Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Iowa Department of Transportation Kansas Department of Transportation Kentucky Department of Highways Lee County, Florida, Sheriff’s Office Lockhart, Texas, Police Department Maine Department of Transportation Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration Maryland State Highway Administration Michigan Department of Transportation Michigan Governor’s Office Michigan State Police Department Mid-America Research Minnesota Department of Public Safety Minnesota Department of Transportation Mississippi Department of Transportation Missouri Department of Transportation National Association of County Engineers National Highway Traffic Safety Administration National Transportation Safety Board New Bern, North Carolina, Police Department New Jersey Department of Transportation New York State Department of Transportation Ohio Department of Transportation Oregon Department of Transportation Palm Beach County, Florida, Sheriff’s Office Parsons Brinckerhoff Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Roadway Safety Foundation Santa Barbara, California, Police Department/Traffic Safety Scenic America Smithville, Texas, Police Department South Carolina Department of Transportation Texas Department of Transportation Texas Transportation Institute Town of Chapel Hill, North Carolina Transportation Research Board Utah Department of Transportation Washington State Department of Transportation Washington State Patrol Westat West Virginia Department of Transportation Wisconsin Department of Transportation Worchester Polytechnic Institute A Guide for Addressing Aggressive-Driving CollisionsThe following people were directly responsible for testing and critiquing this guide: Lisa Helms, Florida Department of Transportation; Jerry Cantrell and Dennis Brown, Lee County (Florida) Sheriff’s Department; Jere Hart, City Traffic Engineer, Lubbock, Texas; and Jeremy Beckley and Brian Ursino, Washington State Patrol.
