The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration sponsored a survey on public perceptions of highway safety issues. The intent of the survey was to assess attitudes, behaviors, and reported actions of the American driver and awareness of public information and education campaigns. The survey was national in scope and the findings are based on a random sample of 1500 licensed drivers who were interviewed by telephone. The major areas of concern were: the 55 MPH national speed limit, the use of safety belts or other crash protection devices, and drinking and driving. Included in the report is a copy of the questionnaire as well as a description of the methodological procedures used in the survey investigation.
