NYCTS provides transportation based health and safety educational services/programs in NYC and LI,NY

Initially the Coalition was a single focus group which sought to help reduce motor vehicle related trauma by increasing motor vehicle passenger safety belt use in the State of New York. In time it became apparent that many complex factors contribute to motor vehicle and pedestrian injuries. We then expanded our scope to include safety programs for pedestrians and cyclists as well as motorists, updating the designation of our organization to the New York Coalition for Transportation Safety (NYCTS), a title better reflecting our expanded and holistic efforts. The following list serves as a guide to the types of grant funded activities conducted by the NYCTS:

Assembly programs for children in grades K-12
Bicycle safety programs
Pedestrian safety programs
School bus safety programs
Mature driver and pedestrian programs
Bilingual (English/Spanish) programs
Programs for children with special needs
Classroom instruction in travel training for young people with disabilities
Child passenger safety seat installation

Since 1987 the New York Coalition has received grants from federal, state, local and private agencies to develop and conduct public information and education campaigns in a variety of localities.

Today marks the beginning of Teen Driver Safety Week.

Teen crash risk increases with each additional teen passenger.

Your teen may not be comfortable telling their peers, "No.", but you can set the rule for them. Keep their ride calm by limiting passengers. Protect their focus. Safe boundaries today protect their futures tomorrow.
