• Description:
  This document is one of three volumes that hae been produced as a set, containing topical subject papers from the Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey, NPTS. These volumes represent something of a departure from standard approaches to reporting the NPTS. Traditionally, the survey results have been reported in large volumes with an extensive series of tables, organized around important sections of the survey, or main categories of data, such as Vehicle-miles of travel, or work travel. While such volumes continue to be produced for the 1990 NPTS, they are being supplemented by a different approach as exemplified by these documents. This new approach examines important emerging travel behavior trends, seeking to understand better key public policy issues on which the survey data can shed light. This approach is an outgrowth of a special study of the NPTS, entitled Travel Behavior Issues in the 90's, which provided an early look at the insights the NPTS could provide regarding significant policy-related topics. As a product of that study a series of additional topics were identified for further examination
