Abstract

As traffic safety has become a major health issue in China, it is crucial to characterize driving behavior and provide feasible suggestions to traffic safety works. A semi-structured interview was conducted to understand Chinese drivers’ views of driving behavior and traffic safety works. The results show that the respondents have a clear understanding of safe driving behavior and believe that traffic regulations should be improved. Then, the cause of the accident experienced by respondents was divided into two categories: error and violation. Finally, the respondents provided recommendations for traffic safety work, indicating the importance of equal emphasis on hardware and software. The results of this study give useful information about driving behavior and traffic safety work in China from drivers’ perspectives.
