| Summary: |
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of variables derived from the
approaches of Deterrence, Social Influence and Legitimacy in the violation of four traffic
rules whose most worries to authorities and legislators in Spain: the use of seat belts,
handling of the mobile phone while driving, speeding and driving while intoxicated by
alcohol. To determine the role played by each factor in compliance with four of the most
flouted traffic rules, a survey was administered by telephone to a random sample of 1500
Spanish drivers. The results obtained show the following conclusions: 1) social influence
and legitimacy variables are determining factors to predict the probability of transgress
every traffic rules; and 2) variables of the deterrence approach don’t seems to influence
the behavior. The results show the need for a review of current public policy approaches
for prevention of dangerous driving behaviors |
