September 4: CNU Florida Summit presentation at 10 a.m.

Traffic crashes are often treated as isolated incidents caused by individual error, but there's a better way forward. In this talk, Edward will introduce a new approach to crash analysis that uncovers root causes, highlights design flaws, and offers practical steps cities can take right now to prevent future tragedies. Drawing on lessons from the Strong Towns Crash Analysis Studio, he’ll share how local leaders and advocates can shift from reaction to action — and start building safer streets today. This presentation is for those registered for the CNU Florida Summit.
