TRAFFIC SAFETY NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE

The annual New York State Highway Safety Symposium brings together highway safety professionals from across New York State to share, promote, and educate on highway safety initiatives with workshops and presentations covering the most critical issues and best practices from leading experts in traffic safety. 

The symposium has merged with the Empire State Law Enforcement Traffic Safety (ESLETS) Conference, a similar conference serving many of the same stakeholders, and unites safety professionals including law enforcement, traffic engineers, policymakers, public health officials, prosecutors, and community organizations.

The event is organized by the NYS Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee, the NYS Association of Traffic Safety Boards, the NYS STOP-DWI Association, Inc., and the New York State Police.
