Abstract

Seatbelt use & child restraint systems : Results of the BIVV/IBSR three-yearly road safety attitude survey. The Belgian Institute for Road Safety (BIVV/IBSR) attitude survey 2012 is based on 1,540 interviews with drivers whose principal residence is in Belgium and who had driven a car or delivery van at least 1,500 km in the six months preceding the interview. The interviews were conducted verbally in September and October 2012. In the attitude survey, respondents were asked to provide their opinion on a number of statements. For each attitude statement it was examined whether or not there was a relation between the answers on the statement and certain driver characteristics (gender, age and region). The analysis tested the existence of significant differences depending on the respondent ’s gender, age or region. Where possible the figures were compared with those from previous attitude surveys conducted by the BIVV/IBSR and with results from other sources. The attitude survey 2012 comprises several sections. This report only includes results related to seatbelt use and child restraint systems. The use of seatbelts and child restraint systems is considered to be one of the largest risk factors in road traffic. For this reason, the BIVV/IBSR has been specifically measuring experiences and opinions related to these themes since 2003. (Author/publisher)
