FIA Road Safety Index Adopted by NYC DCAS, Largest Municipal Fleet in the U.S., in Partnership With Global Road Safety NGO Together for Safer Roads
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) — the federation for mobility organizations worldwide and the global governing body for motor sport — and Together for Safer Roads are proud to share that the New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) announced today that it will utilize the FIA Road Safety Index. In doing so, it becomes the first municipal fleet in the world to adopt the international framework for measuring and improving road safety performance. The announcement, made in conjunction with the NYC DCAS Annual Equipment and Vehicle Show at Flushing Meadows Corona Park and as part of UN Global Road Safety Week, underscores NYC's role as a leader in operational safety and innovation. With nearly 29,000 vehicles, New York City operates the largest municipal fleet in the United States — and now sets a new global benchmark for public-sector accountability on the roads. Developed by the FIA, with funding support from its charitable organization, the FIA Foundation, the FIA Road Safety Index helps organizations assess the safety impact of their operations, report on their safety footprint, identify gaps, and implement long-term improvements. 'Tracking progress, having benchmarks, defining principles, and identifying areas to grow are key components for transforming New York City's fleet in all capacities — safety being no exception,' said DCAS Commissioner Louis A. Molina. 'The pursuit of increased safety for all our vehicle operators and New Yorkers at large, fuels our commitment to reflecting on any and all ways to enhance road safety in everything from refined trainings to new technologies. We are proud to continue our partnership with Together for Safer Roads, and adopt the FIA Road Safety Index to support our citywide fleet safety efforts.' 'As one of the largest fleet operators in the country, we have a duty to lead by example,' said Keith Kerman, Deputy Commissioner and Chief Fleet Officer, NYC Department of Citywide Administrative Services. 'Evaluating our fleet safety efforts using the FIA Road Safety Index is part of our mission to protect our workforce, reduce collisions, and create safer streets for all New Yorkers and complements our Vision Zero Safe Fleet Transition initiative.' Crashes on roads cost the U.S. economy more than $340 billion annually and remain a top cause of workplace fatalities — with transportation-related incidents accounting for nearly 40% of occupational deaths. The FIA Road Safety Index provides a standardized way for organizations to monitor and reduce this toll through data and accountability. 'At the FIA, we strongly advocate for road safety as a local and global policy priority — a cornerstone of public health, and economic sustainability. We believe this can only be achieved through longstanding commitment and collaboration between governments, institutions, and the public and private sectors,' said Willem Groenewald, FIA Secretary General for Automobile Mobility. 'With NYC DCAS implementing the FIA Road Safety Index at the heart of one of the world's largest urban centres, we are reaching a new milestone in turning this vision into action. Engaging local governments is essential to driving meaningful and sustainable road safety improvements. The leadership shown by the Deputy Commissioner and his team on safety will make a lasting difference, creating safer streets across the city. 'They join major private-sector companies, such as Amazon, Uber, and Waymo, who are fostering a culture of safe mobility benefiting road users across the United States. We are proud to work with Together for Safer Roads to drive measurable improvements on the ground to save more lives.' Natalie Draisin, North America Director and United Nations Representative of the FIA Foundation added, 'NYC DCAS using the FIA Road Safety Index is a transformative step for public sector leadership and shows a new way for cities to commit to safer fleets. By integrating safety into fleet operations, NYC is setting a global benchmark for urban centres committed to protecting their workforce and citizens.' Together for Safer Roads (TSR), a global NGO dedicated to advancing fleet safety, continues to collaborate with both public and private fleets to expand the adoption of tools like the FIA Road Safety Index and will partner with DCAS to employ the Index. 'When organizations prioritize safety, they don't just commit — they measure, they act, and they improve. NYC's adoption of the FIA Road Safety Index sets a powerful example for governments and businesses alike working to make roads safer and TSR is proud to continue to support our members and partners as they advance their road safety operations,' said Peter Goldwasser, Executive Director of Together for Safer Roads. The FIA Road Safety Index offers a clear, scalable path forward: a structured, data-driven approach to reducing crashes, protecting workers, and improving outcomes for all road users. NYC's commitment reinforces the critical role cities play in shaping the future of road safety.
