• Abstract:
  In October 1977, the Highway Safety Division of Virginia sponsored a statewide public opinion poll conducted by the Virginia Highway and Transportation Research Council. From the first through the twenty-second of October, approximately 1,700 randomly selected Virginia families were called and a member of each household over 16 years old was asked his or her opinion on various highway safety issues. This report presents the findings of the survey on the topics of (1) right turn on red, (2) left turn on red, (3) the 55 mph speed limit, (4) alcohol countermeasures and the minimum legal drinking age, (5) driver licensing, (6) active and passive restraints, (7) periodic motor vehicle inspection, and (8) motorcycle helmet legislation.
