The National Fleet Awards Program's Significant Improvement Award acknowledges National Safety Council member organizations with fleets that have reduced their number of preventable collisions a minimum of 20 percent based on a comparison of previous year experience.

The NSC calculates a collision rate using the following formula: collision rate = number of preventable collisions x 1,000,000 vehicle miles driven. New Jersey City University's calendar year 2008 collision frequency rate was 13.28, compared to 68.83 in 2007, equaling an 81-percent reduction in preventable collisions.

Committed to fleet safety, the university also received this prestigious award in 2006.
