According to a 2004 report by the Center for Applied Research and The Media Network, an average of 545 Hispanic pedestrians and 79 Hispanic bicyclists are killed in crashes with motor vehicles every year. These numbers are likely to increase as the Hispanic population in the U.S. continues to increase. There is a clear need to include Hispanics as part of the target audience in any pedestrian/bicycle safety education program. With that need in mind, the Federal Highway Administration sponsored this project, "Marketing Plan and Outreach Materials that Promote Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety to Different Hispanic Populations in the United States".
