Abstract:This dataset supports the conclusions of the report "2012 National Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian Attitudes and Behavior." The 2012 National Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian Attitudes and Behavior is the second survey on this topic conducted for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Data collection was conducted by Abt SRBI, Inc, a national research organization. The survey utilized an overlapping dual frame (landline and cell) sample design and included an oversample of 16- to 39-year-olds. A total of 7,509 interviews were conducted with persons 16 years of age or older living in the United States. Interviewing began on July 12, 2012, and ended on November 18, 2012. The samples were combined and weighted to produce national estimates of the target population. The survey assessed the extent to which respondents engaged in bicycling and walking outdoors; demographic and typological descriptions of bicyclists and pedestrians; the extent and frequency of using electronic devices while biking or walking; attitudes and perceptions about bicycling and pedestrian activity; the availability and use of bike paths and lanes in the community; knowledge of various laws pertaining to bicyclists and pedestrians; and changes in bicycling and pedestrian behavior and attitudes since 2002. This report presents detailed findings from the survey and compares results to the 2002 administration.
