Referred to the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit.
H.R. 2992 aims to improve highway safety by addressing crashes involving disabled vehicles and work zones. The bill expands federal highway safety programs to explicitly include protection for occupants of disabled vehicles and workers in construction zones, while also directing the Department of Transportation to establish two working groups—one focused on disabled vehicle roadside crashes and another on work zone safety—to collect data, develop solutions, and coordinate with agencies like OSHA and the Federal Highway Administration. The legislation also requires the Federal Highway Administration to submit annual reports to Congress on how states are using work zone safety funding and the effectiveness of those investments. Additionally, the bill broadens "Move Over or Slow Down" law awareness campaigns to include disabled vehicles and work zone hazards. No specific funding amounts or implementation deadlines are provided in the bill text.
