The main objective of this study is to investigate the perceptions of security about using public transport and ride-sharing in Jounieh-city in Lebanon. Also, this study aims to analyze the preventive measures that can improve the subjective security of public transport used in Jounieh. Linear regression model and statistical analysis of the survey were conducted and the results showed that gender, frequency of public transportation use, evaluation of quality of bus/minibus, car ownership and link node-home ratio are the most significant independent variables correlated with the subjective security in public transportation in Jounieh city. Besides, the study showed that regarding the subjective security; a taxi is the best transport mode used by passengers, with a 56.5%. Uber is the second one with 44.7%, where buses represent a mean of 40.5%, making the minibusses the least favored public transport mode, having the lowest mean of 26.7%. Finally, concerning preventive security measures, this study proved that lighting on stations and the supervision by surveillance (cameras) are not as important as the existing of “police/uniform guards near the stations” which represents the only and the most significant importance regarding subjective security for the passengers.
