Abstract

In a preliminary study, a combination of survey method and an experimental method was used to evaluate the reported and the actual behavior of car drivers toward children in residential areas. This methodology was used subsequently to evaluate three different local information campaigns aimed at drivers. It was difficult to demonstrate any significant positive effects of campaigns, although there is some indication that information campaigns can work. A suggestion for a more promising approach to this matter concludes the paper.
