330 - Legislative findings and statement of purpose.

§ 330. Legislative findings and statement of purpose.  The rising toll  of  deaths  and injuries resulting from highway accidents is a matter of  state concern. Although the state and local  governments  presently  are  active  in  virtually  all  areas of highway safety, no formal mechanism  exists for the integration and coordination of existing safety  efforts.  The  establishment  of  a  statewide  highway  safety program, under the  guidance and  direction  of  the  governor,  will  provide  this  needed  mechanism, and will result in the unification of state and local efforts  in the struggle to reduce highway deaths and injuries.
