The Department of Transportation, in consultation with the State Board of Education and the Department of Motor Vehicles, upon receipt of a request by a local or regional board of education, shall award an exemplary “Vision Zero” program distinction to those local and regional boards of education that offer a program that provides students in grades six to twelve, inclusive, with opportunities to learn about the mission of the Vision Zero Council, established pursuant to section 13b-23b, and the importance of practicing safe driving habits and learning pedestrian safety skills. Such opportunities may include, but need not be limited to, classes, extracurricular activities, presentations, symposiums, peer-to-peer education, parent involvement and parenting education and outreach. A local or regional board of education may submit, at such time and in such manner as the Department of Transportation prescribes, a request for such distinction by providing details about such board's program to the department. The Department of Transportation shall make information about the distinction available on the department's Internet web site.
