This report provides an overview of a state-of-the-art study of highway safety program areas conducted by NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation in response to the intent of Congress expressed in the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981. The overview paper is divided into three sections, each addressing certain aspects of the study. Section I, 'Introduction And Summary,' describes the study scope, objectives and structure, and provides an introduction to the complete report. It also includes a brief summary of the national traffic safety problem, including recent accident trends, estimates of the overall potential effectiveness of the highway safety program and a summary of program benefits. Section II, 'Summaries of Highway Safety Program Areas,' includes a summary of each of the program papers prepared by NHTSA and FHWA for this report. The program areas are grouped within the general categories of roadway factors: safety construction and operational improvement effectiveness; vehicle factors; human factors; special road and user groups; human factors; deterrence of risk taking; reducing injuries among crash involved vehicle occupants; reducing death, disability, pain, and suffering among accident victims; and program administration. Section III, 'Summary of Docket Submissions,' summarizes comments received in each of 18 program areas.
