This study surveys existing school-based pedestrian and bicyclist programs for elementary-aged children, driver education programs, other adult programs, and driver license manuals to show how and when pedestrian and bicyclist concerns are addressed. Examples of each are provided. The study suggests topics needed but not included. Strategies for inclusion are broken down by issue, including road sharing, personal/environmental health, legal rights/responsibilities, and safety concerns - conspicuity/communication, obeying the law, identifying conflicts, and personal considerations. The list of references includes those specific to pedestrians.
