• Abstract:
  In late 1994, NHTSA conducted the first National Occupant Protection Use Survey ; (NOPUS). Shoulder belt use was observed at a random sample of sites across the ; country for drivers and right-front passengers of cars and light trucks. In one ; portion of the study, called the controlled intersection study, license plate ; numbers were recorded in addition to shoulder belt use. The license plate numbers ; were matched to vehicle registration files for each state in the study. The ; registration information provided specific information on the vehicle, including ; make, model year, and vehicle identification number (VIN). This research note ; presents belt use rates by specific vehicle characteristics.
