Summary
Driver behaviour questionnaire (DBQ) study was designed on young driver behaviour related to road traffic safety issues. A survey was designed and conducted in two different contexts: the city of Budapest, located in centre of Hungary, and the city of Islamabad, located in the northeast of Pakistan. The questionnaire consists of 11 items to investigate the young driver responses towards driving safety subjects. The statistical results showed significant differences in driver attitudes towards road traffic safety issues along with some similarities in the regions. The ANOVA analysis was applied on the data collected from the surveys to characterize the road users' driving behaviour, to evaluate significance level of items and factors that most affect the young driver's perception of traffic safety issues. Based on analysis results it was observed that Budapest young drivers respect the driving rules highly as compared to Islamabad drivers. The results in the study could be useful in terms of consideration that which driver attitudes are the most important one’s which need improvements for safe movements on the road
