Abstract

<p>In recent years, although the number of annual fatalities in traffic accidents in Japan is following a downward trend, the rate of decrease is shrinking. In order to reduce the number of traffic accidents more effectively, it is necessary to implement traffic safety measures based on the drivers’ awareness toward traffic safety. To understand traffic safety awareness of different countries and regions, this study conducted a questionnaire survey with drivers in Japan, Italy, and Egypt as a part of the IATSS research project. Although there was undeniably bias in the data samples, the characteristics of drivers’ awareness on traffic safety in each country were identified through comparing and analyzing their tolerance toward traffic violations and dangerous driving behaviors.</p>
