Abstract
To examine the relationship of driver dispositions with traffic safety behaviors and beliefs. A random digit-dial telephone survey was conducted of 796 licensed drivers. Binary and multivariate logistic regression analyses compared hurried and nonhurried drivers and found that hurried drivers were more likely to admit to a variety of risky behaviors. They were also less likely to believe they would be ticketed for speeding and to report wearing their seat belt than were nonhurried drivers. More research is needed into identifying the underlying motivational factors of hurried drivers and what countermeasures will be most effective for them.
