UM surveys Marylanders on traffic safety
What do you believe are the most important issues in traffic safety in Maryland? You can weigh in on that topic by taking part in the University of Maryland School of Public Health's Maryland Driver Survey, which just went up on line Wednesday.
The anonymous, on-line survery can be completed in about 10-15 minutes. It was developed by UM School of Public Health for the Maryland Department of Transportation and the State Highway Administration's Safety Office. The survey will remain open through Aug. 12.
I took the survey and can see where the research could be useful to transportation planners, but it coould be a lot better. If you take it, feel free to leave your comments on how it could be improved here.







Comments
I though the survey should have space where other comments can be added, since it is limited in its answers. I think there should be more dedicated bike lanes. Installing "Share the road with Bicylcles" signs on rural roads with no shoulders is not a solution. The best way to deal with drunk driving is to lock them up in an alcohol rehab center. It always seems like fatalities are caused by repeat offenders who already have their license suspended.
