Florida Tolling Agencies Join Global Campaign Focused on Distracted Driving and Safer Roads
Florida’s Turnpike Enterprise, the Central Florida Expressway Authority, the Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority, and the Greater Miami Expressway Agency have joined together in support of the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association’s (IBTTA) Global Road Safety Week, June 22–26, 2026. The agencies are inviting their respective Florida communities to take the Be Safe Together pledge and commit to safer, more focused driving habits.
IBTTA’s annual campaign brings attention to the importance of safer driving behaviors and the tolling industry’s role in helping protect drivers, roadway workers and communities through operations, technology, communications and public education.
This year’s campaign theme: “Put Your Mind in Drive” encourages drivers to stay focused behind the wheel and recognize that attention is one of the most important safety features in any vehicle.
Roadway safety affects every community and every driver, and Florida’s tolling agencies are committed to protecting drivers, roadway workers and neighbors. To learn more about IBTTA’s Global Road Safety Week and take the pledge, visit BeSafeTogether.org.
