The organization, which was founded by General Motors and others in 1932, merged with the Automotive Safety Foundation and Auto Industries Highway Safety Committee in 1970. It lobbies for sustained investment in the highway system and claims to have been "instrumental in the passage of virtually all major highway and traffic safety legislation over the past 75 years".〔Historical Milestones The Highway Users and its predecessors have been instrumental in the passage of virtually all major highway and traffic safety legislation over the past 75 year〕 It argues that all revenue from US fuel taxes should be used to fund road projects. It publishes research proposals relating to specific highway expansion proposals and regular reports that highlight the most congested roadways in the country.
