An improved version of the Police-Public Contact Survey (PPCS II) was fielded during the last 6 months of 1999 among a national sample nearly 15 times as large as the pretest sample in 1996. The PPCS II, because of its much larger sample size, permitted more extensive analysis of demographic differences in police contacts. In addition, the PPCS II added a new and more detailed set of questions about traffic stops by police, the most frequent reason given for a contact with police. Among licensed drivers, an estimated 10% of white drivers, 12% of black drivers, and 9% of Hispanic drivers were stopped by police at least once in 1999.
