Florida Pedestrian & Bicycling Safety Program

The Florida Pedestrian & Bicycling Safety Program (PedBike SRC) provides free educational materials and resources to address the many causes of pedestrian and bicycle crashes, injuries, and fatalities and to promote safe pedestrian and bicycling activities for residents of all ages. The PedBike SRC also provides helmet fitter certification and recertification training and supports Florida’s High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) campaigns through the distribution of bike lights to local law enforcement agencies. The PedBike SRC supports the Florida Pedestrian and Bicycle Strategic Safety Plan by serving Florida’s at-risk populations located in 25 FDOT focus counties and is funded by the Florida Department of Transportation and the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA).
