TIRF (Traffic Injury Research Foundation)
TIRF is Canada's road safety research institute. TIRF’s mission is to create evidence-based strategies to reduce the number of deaths and injuries on the road. The Toyota Canada Foundation and TIRF have developed a comprehensive public research and education program, Brain on Board. It focuses on teaching drivers available safety features on their vehicle and how to use them.
