Abstract

In order to conduct traffic safety education for migrant workers efficiently, a questionnaire survey to investigate their knowledge of traffic safety was held in Xinghua City, Jiangsu Province. Their knowledge of traffic safety and education were analyzed by applying statistical methods. The results show that migrant workers have a low level of traffic safety education and a lack of traffic safety knowledge (correct rate 56.57%). Local migrant workers and non-local migrant workers have a significant difference (p-value 0.002) in traffic safety knowledge. There is no significant difference (p-value 0.113) in the traffic safety knowledge between male and female migrant workers. Self-protection skills, common sense of traffic safety and basic knowledge of traffic laws are the contents of traffic safety education which migrant workers mostly required. They also prefer case-wise education with true story and picture-based learning. These results indicate that it is very necessary to conduct traffic safety education for migrant workers. The forms and contents also need to meet migrant workers demand for higher efficiency of traffic safety education.
