Tennesee Behavioral Highway Safety Programs

The THSO’s mission is to reduce Tennessee traffic fatalities as part of the nation’s vision Toward Zero Deaths. The THSO works to achieve this goal by changing driver behavior through increased education, enforcement, and community partnerships. The THSO works in tandem with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to implement statewide programs addressing the behavioral side of traffic safety. Programs administered by the THSO are 100 percent federally funded.
