In 2017, the Miami-Dade Transportation Planning Organization, one of the lead agencies of the Miami-Dade Age-Friendly Initiative, developed the Miami-Dade Aging Road User Strategic Safety Plan. The goal of the plan is: To improve the safety and mobility of the County’s aging road users by reducing their fatalities, serious injuries, and crashes, while maintaining their mobility and independence. An “aging road user” is a driver, passenger, pedestrian, bicyclist, transit rider, motorcyclist, or operator of a non-motorized vehicle, who is 65 years of age and older.
