Another common name for a strategic highway safety plan is

• A. Road safety action plan
• B. Strategic Highway Safety Plan
• C. National Highway Plan
• D. Traffic Safety Strategy

Answer: (A)

A strategic highway safety plan is built around turning data and analyses into concrete actions to reduce crashes and injuries on the road. The phrase “road safety action plan” fits that idea well because it emphasizes implementing specific steps, across agencies, to address high‑risk locations and behaviors, with clear responsibilities and timelines. In practice, this wording highlights the actionable nature of the plan and how it translates findings into improvements on the ground.

Other terms either imply a broader or different focus. The "Strategic Highway Safety Plan" is the formal name for the plan itself, not typically used as a different label in practice. A “National Highway Plan” suggests nationwide infrastructure or policy scope rather than a targeted safety plan. A “Traffic Safety Strategy” sounds more general and may not convey the structured, multi‑agency, action‑oriented planning used for SHSPs.
