Toyota Honored With 2013 Traffic Safety Achievement Award




Toyota received the Automaker Award in the 2013 Traffic Safety Achievement Awards for its contributions to teen driver education and safety.   In presenting the award, the World Traffic Safety Symposium cited Toyota’s commitment of $50 million to launch the Collaborative Safety Research Center (CSRC) two years ago in Ann Arbor, Mich.

The CSRC partners with collaborative research from top universities, hospitals, research centers and federal agencies across North America to help reduce traffic deaths and injuries, the symposium said.  Initial areas of focus include reducing the risk of driver distraction and protecting vulnerable traffic populations, particularly children, teens, seniors and pedestrians.
