WHAT IS THE HSM?
Provide
Best factual information
To facilitate explicit safety considerations for:
Planning
through
Synthesis of validated highway research

THE VISION OF THE HSM - A DOCUMENT AKIN TO THE HCM
Definitive; represents quantitative ‘state-of-the-art’
information
Widely accepted within professional practice of
transportation engineering
Science-based; updated regularly to reflect research

WHAT THE HSM IS NOT
• The HSM does not set requirements or mandates• The HSM is not a best practice document for design or
operations.• The HSM contains no warrants or standards
and does not supersede other publications that do.
vs
![Page 7: O VERVIEW OF THE N EW H IGHWAY S AFETY M ANUAL Tim Neuman, CH2M Hill NCHRP 17-38 Project Member 2009 Strategic Highway Safety Plan Peer Exchange SCOHTS.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f2e5503460f94c486cb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The HSM does not establish a legal
standard of care nor does it create a duty
to the public.

II. WHY DO WE NEED THE HSM?Overview of the new HSM

IS THIS ROAD “SAFE” OR “UNSAFE”?
What does safety really mean?

Nominal SafetySubstantive Safety
Examined in reference to compliance with standards, warrants, guidelines and sanctioned design procedures
The expected or actual crash frequency and
severity for a highway or roadway
HIGHWAY SAFETY HAS TWO DIMENSIONS

UNLIKE NOMINAL SAFETY, SUBSTANTIVE SAFETY IS A
CONTINUUM
