Roadway Safety Modernization Act of 2025

This bill would change federal highway law so that states and other recipients of certain highway safety and freight grants can use the money for safety data tools, including predictive analytics and telematics. It adds these tools to the Highway Safety Improvement Program, the National Highway Freight Program, and the National Priority Safety Programs, and asks states to use them to identify high-risk roads and evaluate how well safety projects work. Within one year, the Department of Transportation would issue guidance on protecting and anonymizing safety data and on making these tools transparent and reliable. The freight program administrator would also decide within one year whether operating standards are needed for intelligent freight transportation systems and report to Congress if so.
