摘要: This synthesis focuses on (1) the motivating factors that influence commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers in deciding whether to wear safety belts and (2) research and suggested practices that address CMV safety belt usage. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is keenly interested in efforts that will yield increased safety belt usage. This synthesis supports this FMCSA interest and its goals to increase safety belt usage. The initial step in this research project was a summary of available information in the safety literature and in other sources on the factors that influence CMV drivers to use or not to use safety belts in their daily operations, including a special focus on driver motivational factors. The literature review identified and annotated past and current ongoing research on safety belt use by CMV drivers, not only in the United States, but in other countries as well (Australia and the United Kingdom are key examples). Much of the additional information on CMV driver motivations relating to safety belt usage was collected through two surveys.
