The four major areas of interest in the survey were the 55 mph national speed limit; safety belts; 1984 requirement for airbags or similar passive restraint or crash protection devices; and driving after drinking. A national sample of 1,500 licensed drivers was interviewed by telephone concerning their attitudes, knowledge, and behavior with respect to the four issues of interest. In addition, the survey assessed drivers' awareness of public information and education campaigns, and their perceptions of accident risk. The report contains the results of the survey as well as a description of the procedures. The questionnaire is appended.
