Road Crashes Can Be Prevented

New Book Fuels Passion as it Focuses on America's Driving Culture, What's Gone Wrong and How It Can Be Fixed

Every day we put our lives, and those of the people we love, at risk. How? By driving or riding as passengers in motor vehicles. The death rate for vehicle crashes has reached nearly 43,000 each year in the United States alone. That's 117 deaths per day, and nearly 5 every hour, as reported in AAA's Crashes vs. Congestion Report (2008). The Report continues by stating that the per person cost of a fatality is $3,246,192 and the cost of an injury is $68,170.

In response to this daily carnage, Bruce Moeller, president and CEO of DriveCam Inc., and behaviorist and driving risk expert, has written his second book, Driving Me Crazy.

In this heartfelt and insightful journey, Moeller explores our driving culture and what has gone wrong. Automobiles, trucks and buses have become lethal weapons capable of causing mass destruction on a daily basis. What can we do to improve the situation? Moeller argues that it is not the vehicle's fault, but rather, the driver's.

With humor, pathos and personal reflection, Moeller provides an insight that few can. As CEO of a company that sees risky driving in commercial fleets and automobile drivers daily—and then provides programs to improve it—he is at the forefront of this human epidemic.

This collection of observations, reflections, stories and commentary will fuel your passion to do what you can to make our roads safer.
