Samenvatting

This report presents results from the 2011 National Occupant Protection Use Survey (NOPUS) Controlled Intersection Study. NOPUS is the only nationwide probability-based occupant restraint use survey. The National Center for Statistics and Analysis of the National HighwayTraffic Safety Administration conducts this survey annually. The 2011 NOPUS found that restraint use for all children from birth to 7 years old increased significantly from 89 percent in 2010 to 91 percent in 2011. Significant increases in child restraint use in 2011 occurred among children traveling in vans and SUVs, in the Northeast, and during weekends. Among occupants 8 and older, seat belt use in front seats continued to be lower among 16- to 24-year-olds than other age groups. Seat belt use in rear seats stood at 74 percent in 2011.
