The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
is looking to convene three
Communities of Practice (CoP) to
provide input regarding three
cornerstone motorcycle safety
guidance documents.
Toxcel is under
contract with NHTSA to lead in
updating the following documents:
CoPs are being
created to ensure that the documents
are updated with riders in mind and
will incorporate successful
practices from the CoP members. The
CoPs will include stakeholders from
multiple disciplines and subject
matter experts who are committed to
keeping riders safe. Within these
groups, topic area sub-groups will
be formed to focus on specific
elements within each document. The
topic area sub-groups will focus on
content and language for each topic
area, providing feedback and insight
on draft content that the project
team will provide.
The first meeting is
tentatively set for January 2024 and
each group will meet monthly until
September 2024. Meetings are
expected to last two hours, and
topic area sub-groups will break
into individual virtual meeting
rooms during each CoP meeting.
Materials for review will be
provided to CoP members before each
session, and members should come
prepared to discuss them.
The AMA had Shayna
Fritz, the Eastern States Government
Relations Representative, apply for
the NAMS CoP to represent the AMA’s
membership throughout this process.
Anyone is welcome to apply to any of
the 3 CoPs to contribute to updating
these documents.
Registrations must be
completed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TDHZZ9G.
Registrations are due by
Nov. 27, 2023. You will be
contacted the week of Dec. 4 with
additional information and next
steps regarding the first meeting(s).
