MAP-21, the Moving Ahead for Progress
in the 21st Century Act (P.L. 112-141), authorizes the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue grants to States for
National Priority Safety Programs for fiscal years (FY) 2013-2014.
The authorization consolidates six previously separate grant
programs that are available to help States address national
priorities for reducing highway deaths and injuries. Specifically,
these consolidated grant programs include the following: (1)
Occupant Protection Grants; (2) State Traffic Safety Information
System Improvements Grants; (3) Impaired Driving Countermeasures
Grants; (4) Distracted Driving Grants; (5) Motorcyclist Safety
Grants; and (6) State Graduated Driver Licensing Grant. Consistent
with these statutory requirements, the agency is implementing a
regulation that creates an application process for States to apply
for grant funds. In order to meet the statutory requirements, a
State will be required to submit information to the agency that
supports its qualifications for receiving grants funds. The
information requested includes data, plans, legislation and other
evidence that demonstrates the State is implementing a strategic
and evidence-based traffic safety program.
