Abstract:This Traffic Tech summarizes the findings of a recent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) customer satisfaction survey. In November and December of 1995, about 4,000 randomly selected persons aged 16 and older from across the nation participated in the "NHTSA 1995 Customer Satisfaction Survey." The results of the survey confirm that safety ranks high in purchase decisions and that the public prefers a strong role for government in setting standards for safety in vehicles. Virtually the entire public support minimum safety standards for vehicle features including brakes, gas tanks, headlights, safety belts, and crashworthiness. Most believe the government should provide information to consumers and promote safe driving behaviors.
