The U.S. Department of Transportation has a goal for the number of road fatalities in this country.
Zero.
On Thursday, the department was expected to unveil its vision for getting as close to that number as possible, an effort it's calling the National Roadway Safety Strategy, which will push everything from new technology to prevent crashes to road designs that lower speeds. It will also use almost $14 billion from the $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Law passed last year to help make it happen.
