Public support for policy measures in road safety

This thematic ESRA report on support for policy measures describes the findings in relation to 15 pos-sible policy measures in the field of road safety that were included in ESRA2: three measures in relation to drunk driving, two in relation to speeding, four in relation to preventive systems, three in relation to helmet use and three in relation to distraction. The measures considered target different groups of road users: car drivers, cyclists, pedestrians and motorcyclists/moped drivers.
The report presents and discusses the level of support for the measures considered, including differ-ences across world regions, countries, age groups and gender. The support for measures is also com-pared to attitudes to existing traffic rules, the number of road fatalities and characteristics of national culture.
