This is a symbolic resolution expressing House support for designating the week of May 31 through June 6, 2026, as "Our Roads, Our Safety Week." The resolution promotes awareness of road safety shared among all drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians, particularly regarding the unique challenges of sharing roads with large commercial trucks and buses, such as their large blind spots, long stopping distances, and wide turning radiuses. The measure supports the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's national safety campaign of the same name, which aims to reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks and buses through education and awareness. The resolution calls on the Department of Transportation and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to continue their outreach efforts and encourages all road users to learn proper safety practices around commercial vehicles. There is no funding or implementation timeline associated with this resolution, as it is purely symbolic and does not establish any new programs or requirements.
