The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) developed a motorcycle safety program assessment process to assist states in determining whether their objectives for motorcycle safety were comprehensive. In February 2000, a multi-disciplinary team of national experts on motorcycle safety conducted a review of Florida's motorcycle safety efforts to identify strengths and provide recommendations to enhance the program. One of the primary recommendations of the assessment was to develop a comprehensive Florida Motorcycle Safety Strategic Plan that addressed the issues of rider training, impaired riding, helmet and protective gear use, unlicensed riders, and motorist awareness. The State of Florida contracted with the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) at the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa to assist with the development of the Florida Motorcycle Safety Strategic Plan. The Plan, developed cooperatively with the Florida Department of Transportation (or FDOT), the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV), and motorcycle safety interest groups throughout the state, contains goals, strategies, and initiatives to address motorcycle safety issues. The Plan can be used to determine if programs and activities directed toward improving motorcycle safety are effective and that future resources are appropriately allocated. Moreover, the plan will be used to evaluate the progress and results of the States motorcycle safety program.
