Abstract Author's abstract: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) commissioned the research firm of Schulman, Ronca & Bucuvalas, Inc. (SRBI) to conduct the 1996 Motor Vehicle Occupant Safety Survey. Between November 4, 1996 and January 5, 1997 SRBI conducted a total of 8,210 telephone interviews among a national population sample. The percentages provided in the report are weighted to accurately reflect the national population age 16 or over. The report is a follow-up to the 1994 Motor Vehicle Occupant Safety Survey, thereby permitting comparisons of the public's attitudes and behavior regarding emergency medical services and related issues between 1994 and 1996. As in the 1994 survey, the 1996 version asked respondents if they had ever been involved in a vehicle crash; their willingness to stop to help at a vehicle crash site to assist victims or call for help; their experience with, knowledge of, and expectations for emergency medical services; the availability and use of cellular or car phones; and their willingness to take emergency or first aid training to assist crash victims.
