HR 2992 United States House · 119th Congress

To amend title 23, United States Code, and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act with respect to vehicle roadside crashes, work zone safety, and for other purposes.

This bill updates highway safety laws to better protect people involved in roadside incidents and work zones. It expands definitions to include "occupants and pedestrians associated with disabled vehicles" in safety programs and requires collecting data on roadside deaths and work zone fatalities. The bill creates two new working groups - one focused on disabled vehicle crashes and another on work zone safety - to analyze data, develop solutions, and share best practices with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. It also mandates annual reports from the Federal Highway Administration on how states use work zone safety funds, including spending details and effectiveness. These changes directly affect drivers, pedestrians, construction workers, and emergency responders by improving data collection and safety planning.
