Vision Zero

2025 Traffic Safety Award Winners

These awards are for those who show outstanding service and dedication to accomplish the overall goal of Vision Zero, to eliminate motor vehicle fatalities and serious injuries on North Dakota roads.

Impaired Driving

Alcohol and drug-related crashes are 100% preventable. Lives are saved when drivers choose to drive sober or plan for a sober ride. 

Distracted Driving

Distracted driving puts everyone at risk. It’s a primary factor in thousands of crashes and near-crashes because it takes a driver’s eyes, hands or attention away from the road.  

Vision Zero Coordinators

Outreach coordinators serve as local points of contact for community leaders, schools, businesses and organizations interested in traffic safety education and engagement. 

Motorcycle Safety

Motorcycles do not provide the structural protection of a car, making riders more vulnerable in the event of a crash

ND Sober Ride

ND Sober Ride encourages people to plan ahead and choose a sober ride instead of driving impaired.

Buckle Up Phone Down

Buckle Up, Phone Down is a simple challenge: Wear your seat belt and drive without distractions.

Speeding and Aggressive Driving

Excessive speeds and aggressive maneuvers drastically increase the severity of traffic crashes.

Lane Departure

Lane departure crashes happen when a vehicle crosses the center line or edge line or leaves the roadway altogether.

Seat Belts

Seat belts save lives. They are the single most effective way to prevent serious injury or death in a traffic crash.
