The present chapter reports the principal results of SARTRE 3 regarding demographic variables, such as gender and age, as well as variables that cover aspects of an individual’s life situation and living conditions, more specifically occupation, income, personal situation, education, living area, and driving habits (amount of kilometres travelled per year). The impact of these variables on concerns about road accidents is considered, together with their possible influence on (reported) driving behaviour, the acceptance of countermeasures, and attitudes towards the causes of road accidents. Co-variations between the variables are assumed but are not analysed. The data reported here provide an initial look at the data from all countries participating in the SARTRE project by using basic statistical methods. Thus the sample comprises 23 countries and a total number of 24,007 people. (Author/publisher)
