Bicyclists and Pedestrians 
A National Survey of Attitudes and Behaviors

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) was established to reduce the number of deaths, injuries, and economic losses resulting from motor vehicle crashes on the Nation’s highways. As part of this mission, NHTSA has implemented comprehensive programs involving education, enforcement, and outreach to promote bicyclist and pedestrian safety and reduce the number of injuries and fatalities incurred. To better understand the attitudes and self-reported behaviors related to bicyclist and pedestrian activities, NHTSA conducted the National Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian Attitudes and Behaviors in 2002, and again in 2012. This book presents findings from the 2012 National Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian Attitudes and Behaviors (NSBPAB).
