This memorandum evaluates current Bicycle Safety Education and Enforcement (BSEE) training efforts and reviews the training materials used in New Jersey (NJ). The evaluation draws upon:
- The author’s professional experience and expertise in BSEE training.
- A review of materials and protocols from national BSEE programs.
- Interviews and discussions on bicycle safety and related topics.
BSEE is still in a formative, pilot-testing phase, and there is currently no established standard or designated authority in NJ for reviewing, updating, or organizing BSEE training materials. However, this evaluation aims to provide guidance for the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) and the New Jersey Division of Highway Traffic Safety (NJDHTS) as they consider supporting or formalizing BSEE training standards.
While the existing materials offer foundational elements for law enforcement training, further evaluation and refinement are necessary to transition BSEE from a pilot program to an official offering. A comprehensive review of the materials is recommended to ensure they are thoroughly vetted and suitable for formal adoption.
