SRES 911 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution designating December 1, 2024, as "Drive Safer Sunday".

SRES 911 is a symbolic Senate resolution designating December 1, 2024, as "Drive Safer Sunday." It encourages schools, trucking companies, religious leaders, and law enforcement to promote highway safety - particularly seat belt use - through educational campaigns and reminders. The resolution does not create new laws or regulations but urges specific groups to raise awareness about safe driving habits on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. It directly affects those organizations and the public through voluntary safety messaging, not legal mandates. This is a non-binding recognition effort focused on raising awareness, not altering transportation policy.
