Traffic safety issues in North Dakota

"The young, male driver traffic safety project aims to collect information regarding risky behavior of drivers ages 21-34 that actively operate a vehicle in North Dakota. Information for this project was collected through focus groups consisting of males falling into the appropriate age categories from each of the eight North Dakota Human Service Regions (to allow results to advance prevention efforts on a regional basis). Questions regarding behaviors specific to traffic safety focused on impaired driving and seat belt use. Participants were asked about specific driving behaviors, as well as their knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and beliefs regarding drinking and driving and seat belt use. Opinions about methods for prevention of unsafe driving in this specific target group were also included in discussions."--P. 11.
