Who We Are:
VRUnm is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the safety of "vulnerable road users" (VRUs) in New Mexico. We raise awareness about road safety and provide resources and support to those whose lives are devastated by traffic violence.
Our Mission:
Educating and advocating, so that
all who use NM roadways are respected, safe, and accountable!
Who are Vulnerable Road Users?
Vulnerable Road Users are any persons who are outside the protection of a motor vehicle. Walkers/runners, bicyclists, persons riding motorcycles, road crews, and many others are all vulnerable road users. They are at particular risk due to the far greater size, speed, and maneuverability of cars, trucks, and SUVs.
You Can Join The Cause:

VRU TEEN AMBASSADORS:
One of our organization's most distinctive and valuable resources is our Ambassador program, made
up of High School and University-age teens. The vision and insight of these young people helps insure that our message is relevant and delivered in the most effective ways. Their role in the work and leadership of VRUnm communicates the vital importance
of our message to our key audience - young drivers and those preparing to take to our roadways.
