广州、南宁市汽车安全带佩戴状况调查

目的 调查广州、南宁市汽车安全带佩戴情况。方法 采用随机抽样的方法，按照3种不同类型的道路选取观察点，在4个不同时间段对目标车辆进行观察。结果 司机安全带正确佩戴率南宁市（63．8％）高于广州市（49．3％），而不正确佩戴率广州市（22．9％）高于南宁市（8．1％）；乘客安全带佩戴率广州市高于南宁市，包括正确佩戴率和不正确佩戴率；安全带佩戴率受道路类型、时间、性别和车型等的影响，正确佩戴率高速路高于其他道路、白天高于晚上、女性高于男性、小型汽车高于其他车型，不正确佩戴率工作151高于周末。结论 广州市男性出租车司机安全带不正确佩戴率高；两地区周末和晚上佩戴安全带率较低，应加大执法力度；加强宣传教育，提高司乘人员佩戴安全带的意识。

Roadside observation on the use of safety belt in Guangzhou and Nanning cites of China

Objective To determine the rates of correct use of safety belt (CUSB) among drivers and front seat passengers in Guangzhou and Nanning through roadside observation and to provide scientific evidence for the development of intervention plan and to strengthen road safety law enforcement. Methods Observational sites were randomly selected from three road types (Highway, Main Street and Subordinate Street). Targeted automobiles were observed at each site at four different times and uniformed checklists were used to record safety belt use during observations. Within each vehicle, belt use by drivers of different sex, road type, workday/weekend, day/night and seating position were calculated. Data was analyzed, using Chi-square tests to compare the statistic significance. Results (1)The rate of CUSB and non-use rate among drivers were higher in Nanning than in Guangzhou (P = 0.00) but the rate of incorrect use was on the contrarary. (2) The rate of CUSB by front seat passengers in Guangzhou was higher than that in Nanning (P = 0.04); as well as the rate of (P = 0.00) incorrect use while the non-use rate was on the contrarary. (3)In general, the rate of CUSB was higher on highways than on local streets (P = 0.00). (4) The CUSB rate of drivers and front seat passengers was higher at daytime than at night (P = 0.00), and the rate of incorrect use was higher at working days than weekends (P = 0.00). (5) The CUSB rate was higher for female drivers than for males in Guangzhou (P = 0.00), but there no statistical significance was found in Nanning ( P = 0.21). Conclusion Results suggested that intervention actions should be undertaken to raise the awareness of the importance of safety belt use. Effective public information and education programs, law enforcement and mandatory safety belt use, prioritizing programs on people neglegent to the importance are necessary to increase the safety belt use and to decrease the mortality and injuries caused by traffic accidents.
