US highway safety grant rules quietly remove old executive orders

The US Department of Transportation removed references to old executive orders from its highway safety grant procedures. This means the rules for state highway safety programs are now slightly cleaner, but nothing actually changes for how states get money or what they do with it.

This document is a housekeeping item. It cleans up old references that no longer apply. It does not change how states apply for grants, what they can spend money on, or how the federal government oversees their safety programs. It is a bureaucratic update with no practical effect.
