Northern Virginia Fairfax Families for Safe Streets (NoVA FSS) cordially invites you to attend and support our upcoming World Day of Remembrance (WDoR) for Road Traffic Victims.<a href="https://novasafestreets.org/world-day-of-remembrance-for-road-traffic-victims-2026/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">novasafestreets.org/world-day-of-remembrance-for-road-traffic-victims-2026/</a>World Day of Remembrance is an annual event where we honor those whose lives were prematurely ended after being struck by a person driving. This year is particularly painful and sad as we think about the recent death of a 13-year-old Frost middle school student who was struck and killed by a person driving a truck on Pickett Road. We will also honor the more than 25 other people (as of today’s date) who have been killed on Northern Virginia streets while, walking, biking, or rolling since last year’s day of remembrance.The event will conclude with calls to action for our elected officials and policy-makers. Crashes are not accidents - they can be prevented.
