2013 CDOT Pre-mobilization Seat Belt Survey

In May 2013, the Institute of Transportation Management of Colorado State University conducted a pre-mobilization seat belt usage assessment in the State of Colorado. The study was sponsored by the Colorado Department of Transportation, Office of Transportation Safety and involved observations at 225 sites in 29 counties across the State of Colorado. The survey was conducted from May 5 through 11, 2013, as a “pre-enforcement wave” study, and included drivers and front seat outboard passengers within cars, vans, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), light trucks, and select commercial vehicles 10,000 pounds and under.
